Here's my PIF: it's a Gerber pocket knife. It's served me well, but I'm getting a new knife, and it needs a new home. I think it's supposed to be a 3 inch blade, but I measured it, and it was just...

I'll take Fronkey's stove set.

Also, if you want Mythbusters to test it out as best they can, then here's a forum thread mentioning this specifically: Lightning and it's effect on a hammock. If we make enough noise, we might could...

Darn it! you beat me to it. I was going to say something very similar, but your wording is much better than mine would have been. Thank you for posting this.

CrabanHaust or CorcoCaima literally Crow-bed in Sindarin(S) and Quenya(Q) respectively.
QuessëCaima(Q)--feather bed
LaucaQuessë(Q)--warm feather
LaucaRan(Q) or LaugRandir(S)--warm wonderer...

Storm... for which you could have the Tropical Storm, Thunder Storm, and Snow Storm. For summer, three-season, and winter quilts accordingly.

Just a thought.

Note to self--easiest way to make friends: offer to cook for people.

In all seriousness, I plan to go to quite a few hangs. Once I get my hanging gear, my money can start to go to the more...

Did I just get proposed to in a forum? from someone I've never actually met :scared:.... Awesome!:laugh:

... but I'll have to decline;). Not ready to marry yet, I'm only 21.

PS--yes...

32 or 64-bit OS?

I probably should have said this in my last post, but when I go with friends we never camp. My friends enjoy a good hike, but they don't like spending the night outdoors (they're a bunch of wusses...

I love group hikes. They're fun. But I prefer going solo. It's more of a meditative/reflective/relaxing experience, and that's usually why I get out.

So the bottom line for me is, if I have...

I'd love to take this off your hands, but I can't buy it 'til about mid-December/early-January. If no one else buys it off you before then, I'll take it, but that's a good bit of equipment that I'm...

I'm in, if this is still happening. I don't have any hanging gear yet, but I'm not new to backpacking. Got a couple of items I could throw in.

All's good in Firefox 4.0b6. But if you're having problems, try an IE tab add-on. It'll give you IE compatibility in your FF browser without having to switch back and forth between browsers. Go here...

Welcome from a fellow GA resident. Hope you learn everything you want to know... and maybe some things you didn't know you wanted to know. Have fun and just make friends.

Sounds like a great idea. I'd qualify for backyard hanger, but there are no pics... so it hasn't happened. I don't wanna take pics with a hammock that's not mine... Can't wait til I get my own.
...

I haven't been to a hang yet, but I've found myself planning what I would pack for one... it's a very different list than what I've ever used for hiking. A lot of the extra stuff is enough food to...

Yep. So true. I've had this happen, but I'm pretty good at MacGyver-ing fixes for my gear from what I have... as long as I'm familiar with it.

... Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I'm...

I agree. Until I read this...

I see I'm not alone in waiting on the $$$ to get the gear I want/need... Just one more month/paycheck for me. So close, yet so far.

--Kat

That's fun, too, but I get to do that even less often than the testing.:(

--Kat

I know I've always tested gear in my backyard, way back before I got obsessed with hammock camping--which is a recent development. I don't get to do it often, but the excitement of new equipment...

Howdy, and good luck with learning. I don't know much yet myself, but I'm sure if I couldn't find something my questions would be answered quickly and effectively. So feel free to ask a question, if...

I'm planning something similar for next year, but I'm trekking on Motorcycle so I don't have to worry about weight as much as I do the amount of stuff I take with me.

And about heading south,...

I'll buy it for that, if you can wait til I have the money for it. I just need one more paycheck. It'll be about a month. If you can't wait that long, it's okay.

--Kat

Wow. I'm so sorry. It's hard--really hard--to get over this sort of thing. I had a dog who was run over when I was 10. I still miss her sometimes, even though we have a new dog now. She was loving,...

Well you've definitely come to the right place. Welcome, and have fun.

--Kat

Howdy. Like the avatar.

--Kat

Welcome. Hope you have fun.

Greetings friend. I know what you mean. I do whatever work I can when I'm not doing schoolwork, just so I can fund trips and equipment. I'm pretty new to the Hammock scene myself, and I'm having to...

Howdy. I've got a couple of friends living in NC. There are some good trails there... IMO.

--Kat

Hiya!

Greetings and salutations. Have fun, make new friends and learn what you can.

Mine stems from a pen name I came up with in high school. I had to write a few short stories for one of my lit. classes, and my teacher said I could easily be an author or writer. I started telling...

Welcome. I'm new here, too. We're pretty friendly here, there's lots of high quality info hanging around. :facepalm: sorry, didn't mean the pun... or maybe I did.:D

I've never experienced one while out camping, but a couple of years ago while I was visiting home from college a storm came through the night before Mother's Day... about 2 or 3 AM I awoke to loud...

Does it have a hood?

Wow. Cheaha is just over an hour's drive from me. If I get my hammock before then, I'll definitely try to make it. Though around Christmas is a really busy time for me.

I would love to hang out...

I have to say, this is the most welcoming forum I've been on. Wow. 7 howdies in under 24 hours. I'm definitely gonna stick around.

So, I'm AstrayKat, Kat for short. I'm new to hammocking, though I've been contemplating it for a couple of years now. I finally got to try one out... two actually. A Clark North American, and a...

Seriously. Is this still available?:mellow:
