See what happens when you try to be a good husband.;) :P
Yea, thanks you all. I think I pulled it in and out of its stuff sack just to go over it at least 5 different times before I tried to hang it up. It's on a ring buckle system so my right cheek smarts...
I just got my hammock in today! Thank you very much Texron and PapaSmurf! I'm very happy with it. I realy like the zippered bug net and the pouch to put it in when not in use. This will definitely...
I just got the hammock in today. I am beside myself with it. Thank you Texron and PapaSmurf for your generosity. I'm going to do a test hang with it later tonight. I'll get pictures with it up then.
cool beans, thanks. I was mainly thinking of trying to hit the tree lines by night fall, or stay in them depending on the time of day. Something about not tieing to a tree seems odd for other than...
So I've been thinking about going to hike the Colorado Trail. I wanted to know if anyone has hiked it before and if gear requirements would be different than those I see for the AT?
Crap, If I had the funds at the moment I'd buy it.
Thank you for your support MAD777
Sidetrack! P.L.U.R. would work as well.
I think it's a great idea rjcress, but I think the link for the spread sheet would need to be stickied for it to get both rolling and noticed. cataraftgirl has a good point as well. The only things...

Welcome to HF Fish On! I love the avatar photo as well. Happy hangin'
I to have never hiked the AT, but in a pinch the hardened Pine sap from off the side of pine trees works well to as a fire starter for wet tinder. You can use the fresh sticky stuff to, but collect...
Welcome to HF !bigpaddle. Make shure to check out shugs vids.
If you can hang in until about the middle of AUG. I have a whole extra A.C.U. patterned sleep system. Being in the military and knowing people;) gets you some extra stuff sometimes. The one I have is...
Welcome to HF Bandanabraids.
Thank you both Texron and PapaSmurf. I didn't expect any of this. You guys are outstanding!
No, no dial up where I'm at. It's more like 60 different people all trying to get internet out of one dinosaur wireless router.
I hate how slow my internet is sometimes.
Welcome to the forums. Make sure to look up Shugs videos on youtube and JustJeff's website. http://www.tothewoods.net
Outstanding intro there. Good to have you here on the forums with us.
I don't think this would be hard seeing as how you should try to hang at about sitting to butt level. ;) Especialy seeing that...

For weight Vs. warmth I'd go with a woobie(poncho liner).

I would say the same but, AngrySparrow and NCPatrick said in the suggestions area that there is no need for a Barter section due to that you can put WTT or Want to trade in the header for the thread...
Purple with SPARKLES!:boggle: That would be awsome for a bugnet! :rolleyes: :P
What a great idea! I just don't think I could do that to a woobie. They are one of the greatest things the army has issued me. I guess I could find one online somewhere.
I'll second that warning. It just happened to me about two weeks ago.:eek:

I became a hanger when I was about 18 before my grandfather died. I got fed up with my dad turning into an alchoholic after my mother died so I left home. I talked to my grandfather to see if I could...
Blackhawkgeo: well, now there are open bay barracks here in Zone 6. You don't go to the tents unless your about to redeploy. I use a hammock when we go up north to Iraq to pull out equipment. Some of...
Thank you Eflat, but Texron is sending me one.

@ Shadow Alpha: I know. So far there has been a tab up on his site...
I used mine dureing my HH jungle hammock 05'-06' at Rustimayah in Iraq, 08'-09' at Sharona, Wasikwa, Kushmond, Gazni, and Doachina in Afghanistan, and '10- current at VBC, Taji, JBB, Adder, and Kalzu...
