I am trying to clear my schedule for this one. If I do, I will bring a whole mess of caesar salad, like ALL of the caesar salad. ;) Also, I do hope that there will be another winter hang, this year.

Man, I really wanted to make this one! I am now going to be visiting my Sister up near Spokane, at that time. It will be tough, but I will try and enjoy hanging in beautiful Washington. We plan to...
Well, it's good to have you. I'm from the Franklin/Nashville area. This is a great community, here. I hope that you can make it out to a group hang, sometime. There are usually a few ground dwellers...
Welcome, from Franklin/Nashville! Keep an eye on posts from Neo. He organizes all of the mid-TN group hangs. He's got the Bear Island (Percy Priest) hang mentioned above planned for the beginning of...
Honestly, the X Grande is plenty, even for a 6ft frame. I'd consider the Grande myself, if I was reordering. It is 8ft wide/13ft long/rated for 800lbs. I have the X, and it is unnecessarily huge, but...
I am just seeing the post. I would like to come for this. It may depend on work for me. If I do go, I won't plan on doing any kayaking, so I can hang around camp and watch for gear buzzards.
This is more of a general get-together for all sorts of hangers. It is well worth coming! There are a few of us in this group that really enjoy some good backpacking, so if you're itching to get out...
I went straight from Sgt. Rock's plans, since we're about the same height, if I remember right (104"x48")(30"x12" footbox). Last I checked, I am 5'7" or 5'8". It goes well with my no-stitch cuben...
How many days are you going on with a 75 liter pack? What season?
I've got a 55L Gregory that I've had for a few years, now. I use that for winter trips. That will get me through a good week. I...
Welcome! We just had a great mid-TN winter group hang. Keep you eye out for posts on those from "neo". He does about one every season. This was my first, and it was a great time! It is a good chance...
Thanks, guys. I'm extremely happy with it. As a bonus, it is waterproof. Not that I really have issues with water getting on my ridgeline pocket. :)
:) Yes, it does take a bit more motivation to get out of bed in the morning.
It is the Vario Stand. I got it from Seaside Hammocks, when I ordered the hammock.
That makes me happy. :)
Ok, so about a year and a half ago I got this Tommy Hamaca X Grande Mayan hammock from Seaside Hammocks, and since then, my bed hardly gets any use.
...
I had some scrap Cuben, so I made a ridgeline pocket out of one sheet with a channel at the top, one large pocket on one side, and two small pockets on the other. The whole thing is 3M taped with no...
I really like how it turned out. It's nice not having another seam to worry about. I folded a half inch all around the edges of the hammock, and did a stitch to keep the edges from fraying. That...
Hey, Sarge. I started trying to cut cuben on one of those cutting sheets, too. The problem I ran into was the wheel would start to press the material into the groove it created on the board. I had...

Here's what it looks like with me in it. It is not as roomy, but still plenty comfortable. Also in this...
Alright, you can count me in. I'm excited to finally make a group hang! I plan on rolling in on Friday evening, and staying for the rest of the weekend. I'm new to the group hangs, so not sure what...
So, I completed my Ghost Hammock back in July, and I decided to finally post some pictures and a little info. I went right off of the plans Sarge posted for the body, so a big thanks for those. I...
Haha, that was my solution! I'm headed to the Smokies next week. Up on the AT, it is niiiice and cool. :cool:
Well, one way to escape the heat and bugs is to head up to the ridge on the AT, haha. :) It stays plenty cool up that high, and therefore, no buggies. That is a bit more of a trip, though. I am...
My last name is Stubblefield, and and wherever I go, I inevitably get called "Stubbs". Heard it since I was like 9 years old. (All of my limbs are intact.)
This is probably my favorite one. That's some creative thinking, there. :laugh:
This is a lot of great ideas all put together to make a great hammock. Thanks, Sarge!
Are you guys planning a Mid-TN spring hang again? I would love to make this one. Also, a friend of mine took a tent down to Meriwether Lewis a couple months ago, and ran into a couple of you. Just...
Also heard great things about the Exped Downmats. Very warm, however a bit more expensive.
My friend has just started using his Big Agnes Insulated Air Core from his tent days in his BMBH and loves it. He had a long(20"x78"), and it fits that hammock pocket perfectly. I have not had...
Hey Catalyst,
Depending on how much I have been running and/or weight lifting, I come in between 150lbs and 165lbs. I have been using the 1.1 single without problems, and it will hold more weight. ...
Hey, Nothing!(that sounds weird) Don't know if you caught my intro post, but I grew up in McLean, IL and worked and went to college some in B/N before I moved out of state(Orlando, FL and now...
Thanks to Ewker and Rain Man. I will be looking into the annual hangs you guys have been putting together. I look forward to getting out with some other hangers.
Hey guys! I'm glad to be a part of the forums. I have already learned so much from reading your postings, and I am excited to learn more and connect with the hammock community.
I pretty much...
