Welcome from Missouri!

Welcome to the forums and welcome to hammock camping! I'm new here as well and new-ish at hammock camping (this is my second year). Sounds like you have plenty of camping goodies to choose from!

The story of my screen name is a little longer than most. I was the Adseg Sgt. in a maximum security prison (the Adseg unit is where the trouble makers are housed so it's typically a fairly violent...

I'm not sure. I've often thought perhaps I was too much to be one person lol. Nice to meet you gypsy_infantry. Maybe we'll run into each other on the water or in the woods one day! Looks like...

Dear Shug,

I've always wanted to say "Dear Shug". Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to say "Dear Shug". Ok, enough nautical nonsense, like so many others have said, thank you for sharing...

Welcome to the forum gibbsDC! I'm new here as well. (new poster, long time reader). I'm from Southeast MO, just across the river ya so I guess I should say 'howdy neighbor!'

Thanks Fronkey! I hope to be able to take a trip in the next month or two.

Howdy from Missouri!

I've tent camped my whole life but the older (and fatter) I get, the harder tent camping has become. Not to mention the TONS of crap I would bring along (tent, air...

Hey all! I too have the ENO DN with the ASRL set at 83%, or 93" and it works great for me. I'm 5'10" and 250 lbs. By the way, I'm also a side sleeper and sleep great!
