No worries!
We don't mind the extra wait as long as we're kept in the loop. Hope that things are going well,

Good afternoon,
On the AHE web page, there is a notice that delivery time for a Dixon Rollerpack is 3-4 weeks. It's been seven weeks now since my housemate placed his order and we haven't gotten...
As an experiment, I used Amsteel to make a half-dozen small locked-brummel fixed loops, then locked those loops to a single line. I then attached this to a tree-strap. It worked, but honestly...the...
I sewed a space-blanked around the foam rather than using glue...It worked very well!

I wrote up some basic instructions at: ...
I'm sorry I couldn't stay, but I had a newb hammock camper (new to camping, really) with me and I just didn't feel comfortable with helping him get set up at that site. I wanted to be close to answer...
I will be going...I will be bringing at least one person with me, possibly two. We're not sure if we're going to be there sat-sun, or fri-sun...It depends on whether my friend(s) can get Friday...
Oxblood,
You'll certainly have more head and foot room with the Explorer Deluxe. Good luck!
(You'll probably want to continue experimenting with the hang angle; At 30 degrees, the entrance dug...
I wouldn't expect that your height is the issue...I'm 5'2" tall and I suffered from the same problem.
Two adjustments resolved the issue:
1) I started setting up my hammock with the suspension...
Hey there...It's great to hear that there are more local hangers!
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it to you, but in just a week a whole bunch o' hammock campers are planning an outing to Henry W....
I've never had the opportunity to try a bridge hammock, but I have tried ENO single and doubles, a Clark NA200 and a HH modified by 2Q+ZQ. I sleep best on my side and of the hammocks that I've...
I am rapidly rediscovering my love of camping and the great outdoors, but the majority of my experience is decades past. I may be moderately familiar with Henry W. Coe park, but I've never attended...
June 12th? I'm in. And I'll probably be bringing two more hangers with me. :)
I'm up for Henry W. Coe just about any weekend (once my hammock returns from 2QZQ)!
If folks don't wanna walk too far, the Ridge View campsite has lots o' nice trees for hanging. It's also close...
A S.F. Bay Area campout would be a lot of fun. Also, it would be a great way to show off gear, hacks and modifications for newer hangers.
My primary hammock is still out getting a zipper...
Protecting the underpad was one of my primary design criteria; In the current configuration, I can grab the pad+cover and adjust it even with my weight in the hammock.
My HH expedition is...
Hey there,
Welcome! There are some great places to hang in the SF bay area. Lately, I've spent several weekends up at Henry W. Coe park. A lot of the parks 'round here are beautiful though.

The ropes that come with the Hennessy hammock are perfectly serviceable...but most folks here like to fiddle with their gear. The hennessy ropes are often replaced with Whoopieslings.
There are...
My SS (which I ordered directly from HH's web page) was also camo patterned.
It's odd that whoever you contacted at Hennessy was unaware of the color/pattern. Weird!
I'm a relative newbie to hammock camping…but I like to fiddle with my gear. I'm still learning and I'm still having fun. This forum has been tremendously helpful to me. Thanks!

Trucker at EZ asked:
If the cord that comes with the Explorer Deluxe are anything like the cord that comes with my own HH...Then, I'd guess that no one could have made such an attempt.
Whoopie...
Quick report: The Klemheist knot held up fine on a windy overnight hang in Henry Coe Park. No shifting at all. I hope that you have similar luck!
I'm in. I've was planning on making a trip up to Henry W. Coe this weekend anyways!
How much travel would be involved to get to your campsite? A friend is interested in joining up, but he has...
In backyard hangs, at least, I've had excellent results using a klemheist knot instead of a prussik knot. I haven't had the opportunity to test this out in the wild, though (I only got my...
