I'm still in! Going to pack my car full just in case, but I plan on carrying everything I "need" in my pack. I might go out where I live Wednesday night to give my gear one final check over and...

Been watching some videos on the Incubator 20. I have a WBRR and ENO hammock and I've seen this used on both, so that's a great advantage to this UQ. I'm very tempted to get this, but I'm still...
Since we are not going to be too deep into a trail is everyone going to treat it kind of like car camping? Personally I'm treating it like backpacking, but I might plan on making another trip back to...

I just checked on Kelty, REI, and Amazon. They all say that it is exactly 4 lbs. 14 oz.
Since this is an external frame they're great for carrying a lot more weight than an external frame!

Sounds good owl! I think I would be able to fit four people comfortably. Depending on what's going on in my classes that's what will determine what time I leave. Since it's the last day until...
I'll save the dates on the calendar! Will work out great for me since I have Thanksgiving break the following week!
If anyone would like to meet up and carpool to the location let me know! Could...
Well guys I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a WB Full Length Lynx UQ! I chose the 20 degree version because it rarely gets into the single digits here.
Should be plenty comfortable in my...
Well I'll probably kick the blue pads to the curb then. Honestly I think I might go ahead with the UQ because I only go camping with hammock forum guys most of the time, so the tent never gets used....
Haha! Honestly I've wanted an UQ for a very long time. It's just hard to pull the trigger when a full length Lynx UQ cost $265 and I could get a pad with an r-value of 6 for $170 or so.
Maybe I...
Here's my story:
I'm sporting the WBRR DL and I'm caught in a divide between a sleeping pad and UQ.
I've used a pad before and didn't have any problems. Used the Exped Synmat 7, but didn't...
I'm actually an avid member over here on the KC side! I might join in on this depending on how my week starts out next week. Would be nice to get to know members on both sides of the state. I'm...
8-9, 22-23, and 29-30 are the weekends that I'm free in November! Only about three hours from me, so I'm down as long as it falls within one of those!
A friend messaged me today on Facebook asking about my hammock setup! I told him there was one place he could get tons of information...hammock forums of course! Keep up the good work!

I have drill that weekend, so I won't be able to make it.
I love the cloudburst tarp! You will definitely appreciate all of the room, nice clean look, and how compact it packs.
Just ordered 25 feet of zing it, a stinger, titanium dutch hook, and the tarp pole mod pair! All of this including shipping was 65! Not too bad for prices considering that just solved all of my tarp...
Awesome links to some great photos! Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks CeeVee! I think I'm actually going to get the tarp mod set from them. Plus a stinger and titanium dutch hook! All of...
Here is my tarp: http://www.warbonnetoutdoors.com/cloudburst/
This is what I want to do: http://wildernesslogics.com/TARP-POLE-MOD-KIT-TPM.htm
Can anyone give me guidance on what I should buy...
Dang, I literally made plans this morning for that Saturday! Next time for sure.
Made it home! Time to get the smoky smell off and get back to reality. Thanks for putting together the trip and hope to see everyone again soon!
Sounds good! I'll check on here around noon tomorrow to see if any last minute comments have been made. That way I'm not the only person out there looking for this place near the shore lol. I'll...
I'll start prepping my gear tomorrow and get last minute items. I don't have anything going on Friday, so I plan on getting out there as soon as you do. Since I'm not familiar with the area though...
I'll be there! Will be nice to have one last trip before college starts.
Nice! I'm sure it will be pretty relaxing with the lake nearby as well. I'll be up for it as long as you guys are out there.
Yeah I figured I would put something out there since it's been pretty quiet around here. I might look into it and join you guys. Looks like a few have already said they're going along. Like I said I...
Hey guys,
Haven't seen much action from the Kansas City area since I've been back. I'm just putting this out there that I'm bored beyond reason and need some time out of the house for a hiking and...
After a lot of consideration I have decided to move back to KC from the St. Louis area. I will be back in the KC area early June. I have an open summer schedule and will be attending school in the...
I sent you a PM and tried calling. I'm still down for camping this weekend!
From what I could see it says less than an inch of this weather. Plus nothing on precipitation for Saturday. By the time Sunday comes around I would think any possible weather condition would be in...
I'm still in so far! Just need to figure out what I want to cook in my jetboil sumo! Going to scavenge the grocery store later. I have nothing going on tomorrow, so I might head out and set up that...
This is exactly why I haven't bought one. I think I would rather build my own knowing that it will work.
Well last night I went out on the deck and tried suspending it on there. Didn't work because the tension was too much for the post. I've called around and no one is selling stands because it's a...
Thanks all for the advice! I am going to try out my setup tomorrow night and see how it all works. I need to find a hammock stand that will work with my WB Ridgerunner. I need one that will at least...
I'm not really sure they come in different sizes. I'm 6' 2" 185 lbs and I have just the right amount of room. Any more inches in height and I think you wouldn't fit into the intermediate bag. The...
Thank you for the advice Owl! I'll definitely be in touch. ArmyGear.Net is located in Columbia, Missouri. I'll bring my extra fleece sleeping bag just in case. I still have a ton of military issued...
So today I physically got the Military Modular Sleep System. I realized that ArmyGear.Net was right down the road from me. I inspected all of the gear separately and chose the best items. I got the...
