    Hammock Forums is a Family-Friendly Site - No Profanity, No Flaming 


    Hammock Forums is a family friendly site. This means that our topics, language and treatment of each other are what you'd want your kids to see. We're not a bunch of prudes...we just think that the internet has enough places where that behavior is tolerated, and this particular site shouldn't be one of them. This is a great community where the norm is to support others in their ideas and projects, and not assume offense where none is intended...and therefore not to flame, call names, or create friction in our threads. Respectful disagreement is ok; disrespectful comments are not.

    Please participate in accordance with these guidelines, and PM the mods with any questions.

    Religion and the Holidays on HF 


    Just a friendly reminder of HF's Terms of Service re: discussing religion and politics on this forum. It's not allowed.

    I thought a reminder would help us stay focused. Applying the TOS to the holidays, it's ok to wish folks Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Solstice, Kwanzaa or whatever...but discussions about the religious aspects of the holidays will be removed. We're here to discuss hammocks, so if you have strong feelings about religion and the holidays, please find another forum to discuss them.

    Political and Military Posts on Hammock Forums 

    Published on 03-15-2014 02:22

    Hammock Forums has always had a strict rule against political and religious posts. This has normally applied to issues that most members can agree are contentious...gun rights and carry laws, differences in religion, political elections and candidates, etc. As we've said several times, this isn't about First Amendment rights but about keeping this particular site respectful and on-topic.

    Apex as filler between Hammock-UQ?

    My wife used this UQ protector this weekend, in warmer weather (50F ish) and with rain overnight. Seemed to work nicely for keeping breezes out, and

    Intent of Chameleon pack hooks for UQ

    Just tight enough to make a seal against the hammock is all you need.

    Where do you tie out your bugnet?

    Usually just down to the ground but if tarp pitch is porch mode then sometimes out to high tarp corner.
    I use a longer shock cord.

    First outing tarp leaks

    NORMALLY you don’t have to seam seal the ridgeline - no problem if you do. With WarBonnet, you DO have to seam seal the panel pulls and if you have the

    Tossing up different patterns for first tarp build

    Yeah doored tarps look like hex tarps + doors generally. I've also seen people comment that a rectangular tarp can become a doored tarp when needed, by

    Tossing up different patterns for first tarp build

    Once I got a tarp with doors, I haven’t looked back. I’ll still use my small tarp in the summer where I’m unlikely to even unroll it, but being able

    Can HG DCF palace go the distance in windy winter conditions?

    Around here, winters are milder that rain storms. The concern isn’t so much wind forces and sideways rain as it is an unexpected snow load - either directly
