FWIW, I just ordered one of each of the .7qt ($2.95) and 1.25qt ($3.95) from https://www.shopimusa.com with free shipping.

No need to...

Perfect fit on my bike's rear rack, between the panniers and wedged under the seat bag. Worth the couple extra pounds to have a proper place to sit sometimes.

Most of those options aren't exactly legal; there aren't any open public lands nearby, and only a few privately owned campsites, so the only technically legal option within 10 miles might be hanging...

Also, if you use the $10 "backpacker" tarps from WalMart, they come with small drawstring carry bags with a loop, so once the tarps are out of them I usually use those to hold other bags and whatnot...

The primitive trailhead lot was full, and it was almost 10PM when I got there, so I decided against trying to set up in the dark among the people who had been willing to work a bit to get a dark,...

Took a 28 mile bike ride to DVSP Friday evening, and ended up right in the middle of the trailer park.

I know I've seen actual tent (not RV) sites with water and electric in state parks before,...

Depends on the sap, I guess; Dawn Ultra in warm-to-hot water will usually take pecan sap off most things pretty well.

Had a feeling someone was bound to have had the same idea at some point. For a nicer hammock, I'd go with SnakeSkins, but for this $40 beater, this and a set of Hennessy tree straps are about all...

10x5 sounds like a nice porch for multi-day hangs, or a mini kitchen away from the hammock when critters might be an issue.

One tip I've since discovered for the Stanley cook kit, (or lots of others, for that matter) is to make an insulated sleeve for the pot from a reflectorized windshield sunshade (used the same $4 one...

Water resistance is excellent, at least on the two I have, though they've only been out about 5-6 nights total, so no idea on the durability.

They're too small for any adult hammock alone, but by...

Unless he's a midget, I suspect his left arm is dramatically heavier than that. He's just going to have to decide on priorities. :shades:

Actually, a mod for any hammock with the stuff sack sewn to the hem in the middle.

Decided I should detach the stuff sack and waterproof it, (obviously it's no dry bag, but shedding a little water...

One thing I keep noticing on CouchSurfing and WarmShowers is the lack of hosts in several places throughout the Southwest, and often none at all for 2 days or more of bike touring distance along the...

You people outside the Habitable Zone have an odd definition of "summer."

Here, it means compression shorts and the hammock fabric are almost too much underpadding.

Hard to beat for bike touring, especially if you take advantage of the interior space. Mine has a spare mini-Bic, 3-6 tea bags and a Ziploc with as much sugar as I could manage and still get it into...

One thing about the big poly tarp is that it's going to be loud. OTOH, you can buy a softer tarp later, and use the poly one as a groundsheet under it. An arrangement I've been meaning to try is...

FWIW, at least here, Wally World has some orange aluminum Mini Groundhog knockoffs for $0.79 each in a bin by the tents. Got four of them for the tarps in the beater rig above, and they seem to hold...

You mean the ridiculously loud polytarps or the ones over by the dry bags and such that are 5'x7' for $10? Two of those smaller one seem to give decent coverage on the WalMart mosquito net hammock. ...

At $90, I'd buy it off you if you don't like it. I'd call it a pretty near zero risk tryout.
