We don't need no stinkin' " instructions " ( Blazing Saddles )
Glad you got it taken care of !!!

I watched Paul demonstrate a set up and I remember they only swing up about 45 degrees and shock cord to the ends close to the ridge line !
Call Paul in the morning and he can talk you through it ! ...

May I suggest a group hang ?

There is no right or wrong ! Only dry or wet ! It's all good !

I have never had a problem in the park campgrounds as long as I used my straps !
Private campgrounds may be sparse on trees !
With the fires out west , there may be a shortage of forest and camping...

Way to hang in there Dutch !!!

I have a New River (older w/o climashield ) and a Jarbidge w/ climashield
If you can only get one, get the New River . You will need some support lines in the center of the quilt !
I'm very happy...

I would suggest use one of the UQs and loosen the ends for climate control . You could hang the fan on the outside and breeze between the hammock and the quilt . Then use the sleeping bag as a top...

You sleep on a mattress,
You sleep on a hammock ,
I' seeing a similarity here "Uncle Buck "
I hope it doesn't fall under the mattress tag law !

I love my Jarbidge and my New River !!!
You should try the flamethrower boots LOL

I agree with Hillbilly Hanger !
I got mine with the Apex upgrade and would recommend it for 3 seasons !
It's all good !!!

+1 for the Jarbidge w/apex !!!
I just got some flame thrower booties to to help my feet.
Awesome and warm !!!

Try Amazon and search Atwood Mobile Products , micro sport cord !
There were different colors and 1.18 mm . I ordered some to check it out for possible lashing cord!

Just one more opinion !
I just received some Flame Thrower booties from Arrowhead Equipment !
If my feet are warm, the rest follows suit. At least you'll get what you want for Christmas !

Welcome from a rookie just up the road !
It's handy to be able to compare notes .

Some of us are not living in state yet, but I think a "Hangers Campground " is a great idea.
Keep this thread going. I hope to change my Latitude and Attitude by next spring.
I can help out then!

I'll take it # 2.

May I suggest that you check out Arrowhead Equipment . I just ordered a pair of Flame Thrower boots. Warm feet are one of my priorities too. I have a Jarbidge and a New River quilt, so I feel Paul...

So the journey begins !
Welcome !

Welcome to the Forum . Eh
You can learn a lot on here and you tube.

I agree with SGS, the UQ was my 1st and best purchase!
It's an addiction to always improve your position ( or comfort)

I like the Jarbidge in the summertime , but my New River (long) fits my explorer great.
Can't remember the name, but someone posted a picture of loops over the ridgeline with the side loops on the...

I'll take the 2 black overlays and the first aid bag.

I'll take it

I have a New River with Triangle Thingies over my ridgeline.
The ridgeline allows a lot of adjustment w/shock cords.
I haven't tried quilt clips, but it's an option to try.
Good luck

I'll take the 20* Phoenix

The Jarbidge stuff sack is about 6" diameter and 12" long.

Thanks to Ted's help, I got 2 color Whoopies with very quick service!
Looking at them, they are LSU colors, but they didn't have Crimson and Gray for WSU !

Can you post pics and are they regular length or long ?

I'm in my early 60,s and just started hammock camping with my Harley. Not much hiking, but I enjoy the excitement of rediscovering camping!
Hang in there !!!

Growing old is inevitable
Growing up is optional !!!

I got a Jarbidge and a New River during the sale!
I got a pair of triangle thingies and they seem to work the best.
The shock cords are adjustable, so you can set the hang.

Tyvek is noisy, like wrinkling rice paper. I've used some as a groundmat and it is loud at night !

I'm heading to St Marie's and up the St Joe River today!
If there's anyone hangin' in Northern Idaho, let me know!
