I finished my UQ this weekend. It's a 3/4 UQ and looks great. I'm camping with Boy Scouts this weekend forecast is for 30ish at night. It's like Christmas. :lol:

Pictures to follow.

Help,

What are the best Instructions for 3/4 Down DIY Under Quilt? I will be using it with my Blackbird.

Thanks

I was thinking about a Scout Hang, just not sure how many Scouts would be interested? I can contact the Lawhorn Scout Base to see what we would need to do to hold it there? ...

I recived this in an e-mail so take it with a grain of salt. I found it intresting.

I love it!

BearClaw

I love this, where can I order one. My 9yo has his eye on my WBBB.

BearClaw

In GA some stay parks you can and some you can't. It's always best to call.

I'm no expert but I don't think there is anything " wrong" with the ENO Single. It's a good hammock, my friends that have the double like that it's wider. A lot of them replace the suspension and...

I'm a nay. Puts a crick in my nek. :D

The only thing I can add is in Cub Scouts we are dealing with 1st to 5th graders and when they see your hammock they are going to have to try it out. What I had to do was to limit the horse play...

I'm a Bear den leader, packing for Cub Scout Adventure Camp that starts on Thurs. My son andI are packing our hammocks. Glad to see other Scouters on the forum.

Nice looking hammock. I love the view at the camp.

You should have placed info sheets at the front of your hang sight. :lol:
Free Take One.

Welcome from another GA Scouter. :)

Hi Ya'll

When is the next Linville Gorge hang?

Bearclaw

Thanks, I picked up a box today.

I ordered mine from Wiggies which would make it a clone and the quality is excellent. It's good to about the 50's around 45 I gets chilled.

Your just down the road, Welcome to the forum:D.

Bearclaw

Checked out the down and it's nice and fluffy and an off white color (Brownish Gray). :>

Hi Ya’ll!

I think this is a little past due. I have been around for about a year now, So let me introduce myself.

I started hiking about 3 years ago when I was working in WA. Did a lot of day...

Hi ya’ll,

I know have a lot of down to play with and need some DYI advice. I have never made anything with a thread injector and was wondering if I should start with a UO or TQ. I was also...

Yes, woopie sling will work just fine. You might also look into the buckle and webbing found on the BB.

I am working on the Leave No Trace Award with my Cub Scout Den and received the following information from The Leave No Trace Center for Out Door Ethics.

I contacted the Pine Mountain Trail Association (PMTA) to see if Hammock Camping was permitted and received 2 thumbs up. :D

The Red Head (wife) is donating a king bed quilt to good will. I was wondering if I could reuse the down in my top quilt? I’m not sure of the fill but I would believe it was 700 fill. Granted I’m...

I need a new option, No pillow. I found a pillow uncomfortable in my hammock.

Have pics?

There is a very simple answer to that question. I don't know how to sew and I don't own a thread injector. :(

But it's on my TO Do list. :D

WOW! Nice tarp.

Hi Ya'll,

I'm thinking about putting a hole in the bottom of the storage bag of my GG tarp :scared:to run my Ridge line through, kind of like a long bishop bag. I was just wondering what I should...

Yes, I use it all the time.

I'm not a god, close but not quite.:lol:

So true, DON'T USE ROCK FROM A DRY CREEK BED! The water in the rocks will super heat and the rock will explode. :scared:

I never thought about it that much. I 6'2 and I just hang the straps over my head then adjust the buckles. If the ridge line is too tight I make small adjustments. If I had to guess I would say I...

The Warbonnet Blackbird is a great hammock, I love mine.

And they taste like chicken :D

I would check out Pine MT.

That is awsome!

Please don't attack other forum members.

Ditto, Shug you rock.

I would hike barefoot, uphill, in the snow, both ways for my WBBB.

YES!!!!!!!!

Thank you Brian, I didn't think about that. I'll have to give it a try.

As a fellow Scouter and new to Hammock camping I was looking for an economical light weight solution. I found the Gear Guide 12X12 tarp to work well and for $20. It’s big enough to cover all my gear...

I ordered one, I figured for $20 and I needed a lighter tarp. I like this tarp it covers a lot of area but is not too big. :)

I should have ordered 2.

:D I just received my e-mail, My BBWB 1.7 Double is on its way. :D

And I thought it was just me! :D

What he said. :D

I ordered the WB BlackBird today. Now I can look for a tarp :D.
