It's a regular but I want to avoid international shipping.
Bug sock is sold, thanks Pilgrim!
Borrow is sold, thanks Dweller!
That sounds about right. I don't have my Traveler with me now or I'd measure it for you. I just told Randy I needed a sock for my Traveler and he sent me one.
There has been a bit of interest in the TopQuilt, namely the footbox. Here are a few pictures to clarify how it works. To close up the footbox you simply lace the two sides together. The lace part is...
The Burrow is sold pending funds but I can help you with a close up pic of the laced footbox. It's 74" long.

The sock is noseum but I am not sure of the length. My guess is it's 112" because it fits well with my Traveler. It's what ever Randy sells as the standard bug sock.
Due to not having any time to enjoy my many hobbies (and I have a lot!) I decided to downsize a few of the items I haven't used in a while. All of the stuff I have is either brand new or has only...
I loop my headlamp around it so I can read at night and I also clip my keys to it so I'll always know where they are.
Some really great pics there! Looks like a good time all in all.
woopieslings.com is the best! Four days later and I have my new slings in and already installed on my hammock. Pretty sweet! Tomorrow I will give it a test hang just to play with the adjustability of...
A top quilt won't protect you against the dreaded cbs. I would pick the under any day.
Hehehe. I live in CT, you can't swing a dead cat over your head without hitting a tree or two. I got am email this morning stating that my Whoopies were put in the mail. Hows that for fast service?...
Thanks Dutch. I went with the 6 footers. It won't be long now and I will be hanging in style!
So any idea how long a Woopie I should order? Is 6ft good or do I go longer? I am pretty sure the stock line on my Traveler was 6ft.
Today I had some free time so I figured I'd go out for a hang and do some reading. I rigged up my hammock to a couple of trees and started reading with no trouble other than my hang was a little too...
It totally gets better. My first time out I froze my butt off. In a very short time I learned how to get the right hang, I got quilts and now I hang in total comfort. I could kick myself for not...
I am jealous. So far I have only done solo trips but they have all been off the beaten path in my truck. Once I get a backpack, I plan to really get out on my own. I dig the solitude.
Welcome from CT man!
I try to put myself in the position of not having to ask for either.
The closest I can come is an 03 Tacoma. Maybe one day I can get that 80 I have been lusting after.
My Traveler and bugnet have never been muggy on hot nights. Not sure about the Warbonnet though having never used one. I would not be able to tell you if the Traveler and net is a better choice but...
My only hammock for now is my Traveler and I could not love it more. It's worth more than what it cost and if you ever need a mosquito bag later then just get a bug sock for the Traveler. Get an...
I'd kill to be able to hang in my condo. Not to sure how the wife would feel about it but one day I am going to figure it out.
What? No Traveler in sector seven???
Nice video Blaze. I am a Traveler guy myself but then again, I know nothing else.
Cool, kinda looks like a squaters camp.
Sounds great! I can't wait till things warm up just a bit and I'll be doing the same thing.
I'm in like Flynn.
Sold. Thanks tryker!
Sold as sold gets. Thanks!
I have a lightly used EverNew #1 Ti pot (.6 liter) and a Optimus Crux Lite stove combo. They have been used together to boil water, never any food. The pot weight practically nothing and the stove is...
I have a like new condition MSR water filter for sale. It is unused with the exception of pumping a half liter of tap water through it to clean out the carbon element. I bought it for a trip last...
I spent two nights in my Traveler in the 50's and I wouldn't do it again. I ended up pulling the trigger on an under and overquilt shortly after. I did the foam pap, sleeping bag and a couple of...
I rarely make a fire when I am out. For me it's not about being green or any thing like that, I just like being able to see the stars at night from the moment the sun starts to set. I also like to...
I have about 10 nights in my Traveler 1.7 and I can't rave about it enough. It is my first hammock so I don't have much experience but I can roll around in it and contort myself into some really odd...
I thought you were happy ALL the time! Seriously, your videos pretty much got me into the hanging world. I was in the process of sussing it out when I came across your stuff. I had to draw the line...
First off I will say, there are no pics! I was in such a hurry to get out I forgot the camera. The weather in CT as of late has been goofy to say the least. It has been raining with a chance of...
I have totally wanted to get into tenkara fishing. Looks fun!
Oh how I do not envy those of you who are waiting but rest assured, their junk is worth the wait! I can't get over the fact that it is still possible to buy quality handmade gear made in the US by...
No overfill. Just stock for the most part, I had them put the tie in footbox instead of the snaps.
I was only wearing a t-shirt and a pair of shorts. The way I see it, my gear will be able to get into mid fall camping if I wear the right clothes. That's all I am interested in anyway it looks like...
Hello all, I finally got a chance to use my Summer Phoenix and Summer Burrow last night and I could not be happier. I ordered them in a custom color combination with green on top and grey on the...
I bought most of what I needed in a single shot that way the wife wouldn't get suspicious when packages started coming in the mail each week. Funny thing, the little $60 Warbonnet Traveler turned...
Cool. One of the ideas that got me into hanging was sitting around in the backwoods with my FT817 and drumming up contacts on 6M. I never made a contact and got frustrated with the "mini" HF stuff so...
Jim, I have one of those as well and love it. I did not realize the two different sides though. I am glad you mentioned that. I will have to pay attention to that next time I am out.
Good day for me too. I just got my Summer Burrow and Summer Phoenix in. Awesome quality. I would not hesitate to buy from Thorwren again and when it gets a little cooler, I just may!
What a great trip out. Nice job.
Yea, that's a proper trip report. I go out in the woods to hand and read quite frequently. The naps are a bonus.
I am order #603.
For every guy that gets his lets me know I am just that much closer to getting mine. The only problem is I get more and more anxious!
