For a new person such as myself, getting ready to embrace winter’s sometimes frigid weather can be a real challenge. A challenge made easier by being a member of Hammock Forums. Hammock Forums not only provides mountains of researchable material but also allows direct interaction with gear manufacturers/vendors that are not only active in the field but also active on this site.
To me going through the posts is a lot of fun. Especially when I find myself laughing at jokes and antics probably forgotten about by the tellers. However, I got to the point where I was finding more and more questions than answers. During my search, I read a lot of really good things about Jacks ‘R’ Better (JRB). So I reached out to Peter_Pan and Smee in the hopes they could help me. In less than half a day, I had heard back from the Jacks and was even able to get recommendations based on my individual needs.
I am very happy with the Jacks’ recommendations and look forward to discussing my purchase experiences in a later thread. Yet, as I looked through the “Newbie Hammock Setups” thread, I really didn’t see much about cold weather newbie setups. So I am turning you, the helpful forum members, for your recommendations. I am sure those who will follow will be appreciative.
