Finally got it all together and went out for a quick overnighter.
Met up with RCRacin and just "HUNG" around.
My PLUQ kept me warm, and none of my homemade stuff broke.
:D

Nice when everything makes it through with flying colours! Congrats on the first full night!
I enjoyed it! Glad you stayed warm & slept well.
Awesome job dude! It's a great feeling when you wake up in the morning from your first night.
Fronkey
Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
PLUQ looks good.
Nice setup, How did you sleep? My first night was pretty good, but I woke up a couple of times. I think it has something to do with using a therma rest pad.
How do you like that kelty tarp?
:D ThanksQuote:

I slept well my only slight issue was my PLUQ was a bit snug below my knees and had a pressure point and the feet got a bit chilly.Quote:

I had an old jungle hammock, that just kind of rotted away, Years later I found an ENO S/N that I used. graduated on up LOL
I like it still playing with setups.Quote:

Congrats! I just had a hammock "first experience" on Saturday night: I had to bail and go indoors at 2am due to CBS. I was out on a spur of the moment, and pieced together a bunch of gear from others, without my better stuff.
SO: based on that, and your timely thread, my poncho liner is now going to become a PLUQ. It sure would've helped. Thanks for the extra push!
Glad everything worked out. Need to get some skins for my Kelty, those look good.
Yay! A successful 1st night, and so much better than my 1st night!
Congratulations! Everything looks nice.
Spam, grits & hot cocoa - what a breakfast! :)
This past weekend was my first hang as well... bought all new gear, tested the gear in -3* C.. everything performed great.. Was the best sleep I have had in the bush, no aches and pains, did have a cold spot on my back but discoverd the UQ was not positioned properly..once adjusted worked great.. Any suggestions would be appreciated to keep the quilt from shifting..
This was a stealth hang as well...
