Anybody interested?

I have a set of slap straps that I'm looking to part with. I only used them once or twice in the backyard, they've never been camped with. I'm tossing in the little bag.

20 bucks gets them shipped...

Is there anyone down there that supplies amsteel or dyneema cordage? I'm kind of curious to start playing around with some splicing, but I don't want to take anything with me that I don't have to...

I really like the Kelty's Noah 12x12, it's big yes but it'll do pretty much anything I can conceive of needing a tarp to do. Whether or not I'll actually NEED that much tarp, I can't say, but I like...

I'm definitely packing my hammock and some of my camping gear, I don't know how much time I'll have (full time student now) but I definitely want to rock the odd weekend trip while I'm down there....

Thanks for pointing this out. I went and picked on a Noah's 12 last weekend and I'm quite happy with it. They wouldn't take the 20% off coupon, though - but I did manage to get the last one in the...

I have a silk liner and will be getting a fleece liner eventually. The silk liner worked great as a liner or as a light sleeping bag. It's pretty much a permanent part of my travel kit now for when I...

I slept on a big agnes insulated air core for two months this summer and it did great by me. I was sleeping on the ground in the desert; it was COLD, not sure exactly how cold but a 20F bag was good...

I found out a couple of weeks ago I'm moving to Brisbane to go to school, should be there by the beginning of 2011!

I use a shock white 8x10 poly tarp and it's done well enough for me. The bulk of the thing bothers me more than the weight honestly.

The grommets have proved to be a problem though as some of...

I got ratchet straps from a harbor freight. I didn't have a way to cut the hooks off so I took a metal chisel and kind of wedged it into the gap where the hook is bent around the strap and widened it...

I've done what I think everyone else here has - removed the biners and put in an alternate suspension. In my case I got some of the gaudy yellow ratchet straps from harbor freight and cinch buckles...

That's pretty much what I've found, though I haven't tried a ridgeline or anything.

Got my order in today, much thanks. What are the buckles actually made out of?

I'd be up for that.

I haven't been around here really, I didn't grow up hiking and only started while I lived in Philadelphia where I hiked around Wissahickon creek and environs. About the only really local place I've...

Hello everyone!

I just got back from the land of no hammocks (Mongolia) where I've discovered a penchant for sleeping outside, and after spending a memorial day food coma in a friend's ENO...
