I have the WallCreeper - wonderful bag.
Looking forward to the report on this hammock.
The rack atop my Hundyai Santa Fe has a weight limit of 80 lbs so I wouldn't consider hanging from it. The trailer hitch on this vehicle was used by another hanger once - the vehicle was parked on a...
I use a straight upholstery needle for this - works well. Can be bought in almost any place that sells fabric.
Sorry to hear the hammock is so short - maybe your younger boy can use it?
If anyone talks with him, please give him my regards. I haven't heard from him or his wife.
We had a family picnic and pool party

Dinos with some of the kids

Put reminders in my Thunderbird calender to remind me to call when outfitters are open - and to call next week - and the week after.
Do you have the Jacks R Better Bear Mountain hammock in stock?...
[/quote]It does not come with all BMHs, but they supplied it to me because they were aware of my difficulties and wanted to assure I would be safe and comfortable. The Jacks of JacksRBetter (Peter...
The JRB Bear Mountain is a great hammock and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to be almost completely flat or needs a firm surface for sleeping (are you guys with back problems listening :D)....
Too bad there is nothing this nice for us lowly ground dwelling types to frequent. I think I'm just going to wait and see if this just another "shut down WB to calm things and back to business as...
All major religious teachers whose teachings have endured centuries have taught this. The reason: truth is hard to kill. Just when you think you've managed to drown it, it pops to the surface again.
PM me an email addy and let me know if you can open an excel file
Thank you for the info -- even this dino isn't that fluffy.
Some hinted earlier that hangers don't rant and feud because they get quality rest... so I think this site is safe from those grumpy ol' ground-dwelling trolls. Now grumpy ol' tree-climbing lizards...
Hmmm... a half-dozen $16 hammocks might be the answer to how to sleep my enormous family around Christmas time. Whoops, I slipped and talked about hammocks - not sure what came over me :D
Amen.
I hope the WB admin will take whatever time is needed to come up with a set of rules that they can all live with and agree to enforce universally. They don't have an easy job by any means.
Think I'll forgo it this year unless my Dad want to go -- and then I'll get a room in Abingdon. The tent city is just too muddy, loud and rowdy for Dinos. Also, there really isn't enough in the way...
I have a profile, but I only use it to keep up with what my younger grandkids and older great-grandkids are up to.
::: Dino feels old because great-grandkids are old enough to have facebook accounts...
I'm going to the ruck - and so is he-dino.
Good point about weight differences... perhaps two sets of spreader bars would be a wiser choice - that way each hammock would be supported independently. This could be done fairly easily if one...
Concept drawing:
This may be a really unfeasible idea, but I want to bounce it off you DIYers - would it be possible to make a double version of a bridge hammock? Since the hammock does not sag in the same direction...
A very Merry Christmas and wishes for a stable, dry and mid-air New Year.
I'm in the same boat with Dixi - have to spend a lot of time at WB trying to keep the peace, but come here because I like it.
BTW, for those that requested it - a link to the LW pic
I've tried the hammock with a Ridgerest and BA Insulated Air Core Rectangular - both 20" x 72". Haven't tried it without a pad yet. While I'm at the upper end of the weight limit, in men's sizes I...
Yes, and this is a normal pattern for an informational site.
I'm 5'10 and at the upper end of the weight limit and so far, I'm good with this hammock. Of course, I'm a woman so I don't have the shoulders you fellows have, but the hammock hasn't squeezed me. ...
Congrats to HF. I was just looking at your membership.... seems you have a lot of people who don't ever post or have less than 5 posts. Any idea how many are active here? Just not posting doesn't...
Not sure how to answer the poll.... does trying to find a hammock that will work count? Does making a hammock count? Am I considered a total newbie because I just got the Bear Mountain and have...
My JRB Bear Mountain arrived on Tuesday, but I had to take He-Dino to the doctor immediately after it arrived - both Dinos have been pretty sick and east TN has been windy, damp and cold. I finally...
Thanks for letting me know where Nate is and that he is OK.
Sorry, Peanuts, I thought Mocha was the smaller dog I've seen in some of your pics at hangs. I honestly couldn't imagine sleeping with a large dog in a hammock.
Skar, I gave sleeping with dogs...
Mocha is much smaller than Pete.... Pete probably weights about 85 - 95 pounds........ I wouldn't sleep in a hammock with him.

Has anyone heard from Ewker in the past couple of days? I know he was having some surgery Monday.
Jay, for the sort of backpacking you do a 3.66m x 3.66m (12' x 12') tarp is too large. This tarp does come in a 2.75m x 2.75m (9' x 9')size that would likely be better for you.

There are areas here - mostly up toward Slickrock Wilderness in NC - where hunters go in for several days - probably on ATVs. It is not uncommon to be bushwacking and find a 24-pack of empties, a...
I actually did mention that to her -- she said she wants the dog inside with her. There's no accounting for bad taste :D
My friend needs something for herself and a dog. I'm thinking even a double hammock won't do :D
I was looking for a good price on tents for a friend and found it.
Sorry about the duplicate thread - I searched for 'EMS' before posting and didn't get a match.
Anyone seen the EMS S3 Switch Shelter system in person? Description: Sleep out of the rain and off the ground. The one-person Switch Shelter includes a hammock, mesh tent, and rainfly. Each...
I see these sort of things more on hunting trails than hiking trails. Many of the hunters here don't see a problem with a hacked up can of beef stew or a fire on the trail because they are not out...
That deserved to be shouted from the cliffside :D
Happy turkey day - and I want to see pics of at least one of you cooking a turkey from a hammock :D
::: Dino peeks out from under down quilts with interest :::
Would these patterns be helpful?
Equinox makes the Campmor silnylon tarps - we have a 10' x 12' - had a lot of use and works great. It comes in 6' x 8' and 8' x 10'
