Looks like a well designed tarp/hammock tent. I like the zipper suggestion and one more I'd add would be to add about 6" strip of plastic tarp type material to seal around the bottom. I think it's...
Great view from the bird feeder.
I use the Winter Incubator ,78" x 44" from HAMMOCK GEAR under quilt for both my Clark NA and the Hennessy Expedition A-Sym hammock and have no problems keeping it in place. All quality gear.
Thank you for sharing your trip. The roads, trees and country side is so similar to the area I live in central Alberta, Canada.
Nice to see the youngsters out and about. Love your map reading skills.
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us. It looks like a hikers paradise and even better with friends.
Bears don't like Bigfoots so you should be safe during the day time at least. Maybe just hang out your shoes at night to be sure.Thanks for the entertainment.
I enjoyed your video and seeing the hammock set up and some of the gear you are using. I'm sure your son liked the experience too.
Thankyou, HONOURED HAMMOCK MASTER, for your great videos and the latest how to vids.
Snidetripod, I was able to 7/64 samson amsteel at BOATCRAFT.COM They are at 6316-106 St Edmonton. Ph 780-437-4919.
I always enjoy your videos and photos.Got a chuckle out of your comment "Back when I was young,skinny and immortal. I since discovered that old men don't bounce." I have to agree with that.
Thanks for taking us on your trip. It looks like a great place to explore and hang.
Good day eh! You have caught the Hammock pox now and the only relief is more gear and hanging in trees.
Thanks for the great photos. It must have been quite an experince. Hope you can let us know what equipment worked and what you might do different when you camp in the winter again.
You did a great report and video of your winter survival experience. I'm convinced now that a winter sock is the rig to have.I'm glad you made it out safe.

Thats great you can get together and then letting us share the amazing views is even better.
Thanks for sharing your trip with us all. It's the closest I'll come to ever getting there. The only thing missing is the fresh air smells of the mountains. The weather is similar to what my boys and...
I use the Hammock Gear Winter Incubator under my Clark North American and it works great. You can't put much in the storage pockets when using the under quilt as it pulls the UG away from your back...

Sorry about cutting in on this thread. I'm having trouble starting a new one.
How many yards of material would I need to make a Hammock to fit those new Dutch Clips? Could I carry the hammock,clips and straps and OH MY Gawd sized whoopie slings all at the same time in my pick...
I'ved used a 6 ft sling from PRINCESS AUTO . They had a good weight rating, have loops at both ends so lots of length options depending how you wrap around the tree. I never noticed any stretch but...
