Thanks TheQ, I will probably do the Spruce Grove one as I've been to Sespe area and found it a little arid!
Thanks for the reminder on the permit, I have to check if my last one is still valid! I...

Hi Ladies and Gents,
I'm looking to plan an overnighter, but I don't know where to go!
I'm looking for something secluded, in other words, not an established camp site, or at worst a primitive...
Hi Ladies and Gents,
I have recently taken up residence in an apartment with a balcony! Having procured the necessary spousal permission, I plan to put a hammock stand out there.
I have an...
As someone originally from the UK I remember how hard it was to find certain bits of gear, so good on you for getting a UK distributor.
Dave
Weegie over here. spent as much time as I could out in the campsies, they're worth a quick peek on your way up north if you have a chance.
It is VERY good!
Dave
Great pictures, really makes me miss home. :(
Dave
Just got back, I'm glad to see so many of you agree with me!
Dave
Ok, so it's 0655 in the morning here and I'm about to head out for an over night trip, in preparation I was just watching a shug video to refresh my memory of a specific detail.
At some point...
Check this video out.

I always use the knife in my pocket, which is anything from a buck 110 to a spyderco endura. The trick for me is to use wood or paper as a back stop.
David
This is a great community, I want to tell you guys what happened when I was starting out here. I was looking for my first UQ and getting it second hand to keep costs down.
First I talked to KAQ,...
I'm also in, thanks.
Dave
Not sure, probably some time in August/Early Septemper.
Dave
Shipping notice has landed!
Dave
Spoke to Brandon today, he told me that the first batch of tarps are shipping this week. :)
Dave
I'll add my two cents.
Stu's work is of extremely high quality, his customer service is even better. Not only that but he has gracefully answered every one of my questions as I am learning to...
I spoke to Brandon yesterday, he was sold the wrong cutting equipment and that's why there's a delay on the SuperFlys.
I just want to put it out there that Brandon is a stand up guy who has...
Hi, sorry for the slow reply, has been a busy day. I may well be wrong, but I do think I'm right, however it has been known to happen that I am in error.
Anyway, the way I see it is: because the...
That's a very nice hammock, I'm not sure how to fix the problem, but maybe some kind of grip tape? A rubberised tape of some kind?
I don't want to piss on your camp fire, but I'm not sure that...
Welcome to the site, I'm a long time lurker too, read more than post.
I understand that there is some sort of odd law in Fl state parks that forbids attaching things to trees. I'm sure someone...
Thanks for all the advice gents.
I use an Evenk Hitch and Truckers Hitch for my ridge line normally, none of those silly figure 9s for me. But I have been having trouble with prussics, so I...
Hi Gents & Ladies,
I've been making some changes to my setup lately and I find myself in need of some advice.
I generally run a continuos ridgeline, partly for convenience and partly for...
I was hoping for a more appreciable difference, I'm not a huge fan of SilNylon, but can't justify $300+ for a tarp right now. Might be DIY time.
Dave
Did I understand correctly that the heavier grades of Cuben Fibre are cheaper?
Dave
Wow, I want one, but if only it wasn't camo. :(
Dave
Just go to a lumber yard and ask them if you can take some of theirs. Almost all lumber comes in Tyvek and most places throw it out.
Dave
So, on my way back down from NorCal to SoCal I decided to take the coast route, I'd heard it was beautiful and I heard right!
I also wanted to get an overnighter in, so I stopped off at the salmon...
Found, thanks.
Dave
Good morning everyone,
When I joined up there was a lot of interest in the suspension on the exped scout hammock, I got around to taking some pictures today, so here you go.
There are two lines...
Good job finding that location, I'm not sure I'd have been that imaginative. :thumbup:
Dave
Hi Gents and Ladies,
I'm looking for an UQ I'd like one rated to about 30 F, though lower would be better, I would prefer down and it will have to be full length as I'm fairly tall. If anyone has...
Ah well, I'll be faster next time, I hope it serves you well.:)
Dave
If this isn't sold, I'll have it please.
Not sure if Dblcorona's post means he bought it.
Dave
The first time I fell asleep in a hammock was in the "leg dangling" position, I might have to try sleeping that way, especially since I can then keep my boots on and get up easily at night. :)
Dave
Hi guys,
I got my whoopieslings a week or two ago, and I gave them a first try today. I ordered the 8' and 8' because the whoopies will always go to their minimum length and the tree huggers can...
Hi Gents and Ladies,
I got fed up of work and wanted to try the new suspension on my hammock, so I popped out for a brief hang. Unfortunately the trees I found were about 3 feet closer than I'd...
Thanks for the info guys, I also was interested in this.
Dave
I'll get pictures when I next go for a wee hang of the exped set-up, I'll post it up somewhere, where in the forum do you lot suggest.
You know: malted barley, fermented, distilled then...
For the record, I'm an Islands man, my favourite being Lagavulin 16 years. I just finished a bottle of 10 year single cask Laphroig that was a Cooper's Choice bottling, the one before that was Arberg...
I'm moving to California, so I want to get up off the ground away from critters.
Dave
Good evening ladies and gents,
I'm Dave, I'm from Scotland, living in England and about to move to California in September to continue my studies.
I'm new to hammocking, but not that new to...
