Thanks man, that's EXACTLY what I've been looking for.
Looking to do some of or possibly thru the Colorado Trail and was wondering if a hammock is feasible? I've gotten mixed reviews on my research, but nothing really definitive. Thanks
Pack is sold
Sale pending
I will also sell the pack for $160 without the hipbelt so you can buy your own from ULA if an XL is not your size.
I'm selling my Large size ULA Catalyst with XL hipbelt and water bottle holder on the right shoulder strap. I bought it around this time in '09 and it has 4 or weeks collective use out of it in that...
I'm just afraid of some of those top quilts being to hot. Any ones in particular you would recommend?
Yes sir, I'll definitely be using a pad as well.
I'm a hot sleeper and starting an AT thru early March which I think will probably put me N.VA and Mid Atlantic in June and July. I'm considering Just using the JRB fleece quilt liner for a couple of...
I'm selling my Camo Jungle Hammock with Camo rain fly. I'd say it has a couple of dozen nights in it, maybe a few more, but that's it. I bought it last year and just hadn't used it much. The...
Sold!!!!!!!!
Yes it is.
They say you can use it for that, but I haven't.
I was using as an UQ.
I'm 6' and it's good for me, but understand you may need one bigger.
Regular length. I grew up in Allen.
It's the bright one, I guess it's the Kelley. Where you at in North Texas?
Selling my JRB No Sniviller with suspension kit. Was used a total of 5 nights. Bottom of stuff sack has a small abrasion on it(mess kit rubbed up against it). $210 including U.S. shipping I take...
Posted this yesterday, but no one ever responded. I'm starting an AT thru next week and was wanting the flexibility of a pad so I could shelter or hostel crash if need be. Does anyone think a JRB...
I'm starting an AT thru next week and was wanting the flexibility of a pad so I could shelter or hostel crash if need be. Does anyone think a JRB weather shield with a pad(Thermarest Prolite 4)...
I'll get you those measurements by tomorrow. Thanks
Would love to, but I should be leaving on the 30th for my thru.
Was supposed to say "what" should I thread through the ends and attach to the rings.
My hammock came in today :D ! I tried it out and it seems to be what I'm looking for. I hate to say it before I actually sleep in it, but it almost seems more comfortable than my blackbird. One...
I'm not really the DIY type quite yet.
I just ordered a Claytor jungle hammock. Where can I find snakeskins for it. I'm starting a thru in a couple of weeks so I need them before then. Would Hennesy's work? Thanks
Never really thought about that. I guess with my lack of knowledge on hammocks I thought the ridgeline was structural and had to be there at all times. Thanks, I'll check that out
I purchased a Warbonnet Blackbird a while ago and while I think it's superb quality I do have one complaint. Using it as a seat to just chill out and relax in is impractical. The ridgeline is...
Sometimes I can be a restless sleeper at home, not quite like I was in the hammock though and yes, it was fairly comfortable. Love your videos Shug. Your Blackbird one was the thing that finally...
I will definitely try that next time. Thanks
No, should I be? Normally I just notice by morning when it's time to get up anyway.
Well I finally had my first night hanging late last month and have done several since. I'm still not sure if it's the way I'm going on my AT thru starting next month. I camped out in Cades Cove...
Just ordered my No Sniveller. Thanks for all the help.
I guess that's that. I'm ordering a No Sniveller. The only other main piece of gear left is a top quilt or sleeping bag. Any lightweight, warm suggestions that don't brake the bank?
I'm an idiot!!! I just realized their "available options" page is not exclusive to the product you're looking at, but applies to everything. This is the same guy that's planning a thru-hike...
Thanks, one more question. There's several different available options for the No Sniveller. Other than the over stuff option I'm not really sure I understand what they mean exactly or if I'll need...
Bears that get acclimated to human food also have half the life span of bears that don't.
I guess I should have mentioned I've got a Warbonnet Blackbird on the way.
I'm considering the JRB Nest or the No Sniveller and was wondering what some opinions were. JRB's site shows the No Sniveller can be used as an UQ. Does anyone use it for that? Thanks, Preston
Just donated. I've already learned so much from you guys and this site, $10 bucks is well worth it.
Let me start buy saying I'm completely new at this and you've all been so helpful at helping me figure all this out. I finally decided on a Blackbird hammock, should be here soon. Not sure which...
I'm new to the hammocking craze, haven't even ordered one yet. I think I may go with the Blackbird though. I'm planning an AT thru-hike starting somewhere in mid to late March. I'm wondering if I...
