I usually keep my ridge line separate (in one of my pack hip pockets) from the CF tarp when backpacking. It allows me to set up the ridgeline if its raining while still wearing my pack and then...
I've done a lot of miles on the AT with a hammock. What works for me might work for you (or not)
1) The best way to keep pack weight down is not by spending money on ultralight stuff, it's by not...
The Bells loop is fun with a very classic Rockie Mtn vibe but you'll likely hit snow early in June. East Maroon Portal is a nice walk and there is a great place to camp over at Copper Lake, on the...
I think you would be okay with any of the top cottage providers. I just got a Hammock Gear 20 degree UQ in a little over a month. I have 3 of George's LL quilts and love them but the Hammock Gear...
I've had luck doing exactly the same thing using a grapevine (half of a double fisherman's knot) around the standing part. It holds fine even in windy conditions. YMMV
+1 on the jarbridge. It was my first UQ and I still use it on fire assignments.
This is an expensive forum to check in on...... Top and Bottom Operators just ordered. I used my 20 degree LL quilts earlier in month on an AT hike and loved them but wanted something a little...

Here is my Chameleon set up last week at Dicks Dome on the AT in N Virginia.
Hmm. I have a HG CF tarp with doors that works fine with the over the top pole mod to hold out the sides. My chameleon and netless hang fine side by side with Dutch's Beetle buckle and spreader. ...
Filled out my survey today and they added the one thing I didn't see earlier, the option to add the spreader pole to hang two hammocks side by side. I ordered the extra suspension for my existing...
The Edge is nice but if you only want to have one tarp, I would get the Superfly (I did) It offers a lot more options for the 8 oz. of extra weight. Still half the weight of the lightest tents...
Just got my new Ghost Pepper from Loco Libre. I can post pictures but the camo outer/black inner shell makes it hard to see the detail and craftsmanship George puts into these things. I ordered it...
Better answer below......
Wonder if we'll see a rift between Shug and Sintax77 fans........Hope not :confused:
I'll take it
PM Sent just now. Probably take it. Sorry just saw Paypal note at end.
Very interested. Do you know the total weight packed for backpacking?
Lakewood Colorado store had boxes of them. I only took 2 :-)
