Sure? I can pick up some catering on the way?
So something happened, either the meat was sub par, or my smoker malfunctioned, and the meat looked off to me.
So this really sucks, I just had to toss 40 bucks of meat out that I smoked for 20...
It’s going to be late Friday when I get there, it will just need heated up.
I love making my BBQ for people, it’s my own rub and 24 hour smoke time. And I inject it.
I’m going to try to smoke a couple of butts for this, hoping to get up there Friday night.
Still hoping to make this one :)
Should I be able to make it, I will bring pulled pork for Saturday.
Marking it down. :)
Wanting to do a solo or maybe with a friend for an over night.
Thinking about Blowing Rock / Grandfather Mountain area.
Maybe 1 mile hike to spot and 1 mile back?
What’s a good trail and...
I got lucky, got home to sunshine, only wet gear was my Mountain Fly, hung it for a couple hours on the porch and it was good to go.
It was good meeting everyone, hope to make another hang soon.
Headed that way
Got them both in, really nice quality. Testing them out next weekend :)
That’s unfortunate. lol
I’m looking to get a job in Lenoir.
I’m not stressed about it, got all of my stuff together, just have to stuff my quilts in the bags, and I’m ready. Going to make some jerky Wednesday.
I’ll discuss it with my wife.
I will have to do a shift change with work too.
(work 4 10s, so I’m there till 7)
I might try for Friday, but I would be there super late
I will be there Saturday morning, it will just be me.
Did you find that the beaks added a lot to rain protection?
Makes sense to me. I have 2 tarps, I will be getting rid of the Abrigo. So only 1 to worry about.
I got a mesh snake skin, I was thinking about leaving the tarp and ridge line together.
Would that not be ideal for deploying?
Looks like I am all set for this one.
The last items I needed are shipped out today.
Continous Ridgeline, Over or Under the fly?
Ordered up all of the stakes and tarp hard hardware from Dutch.
So seem sealer is all I need to do?
Just ordered the WB Mountainfly 20D Silpoly.
What do I need to do before taking it out? Anything special?
Going to be using a snakeskin mesh and Dutchware continous ridgeline and other...
The ridgeline I’ve been eyeballing because of Shug, it seems like the easiest way to set up a Rain Fly.
After getting the UQP in the mail, it’s so small and light, I don’t see why not keep one in the pack.
I ordered the 2qzq and some other stuff from Dutch while looking at a continuous ridgeline.
:)
Welcome from GasVegas
I am in the market for a new tarp likely also. But the arguments for the UQP seems to be pretty compelling.
Glad we are getting rain now, my mud was getting a little dehydrated.
I will be doing Linville and the mountains mainly, and Uwharrie.
How needed are these?
I have a HG Phoenix on order, and well, if it will protect it from damage while out, are they worth the price for insurance?
I’m hoping for the March Uwharrie trip
I will try to attend, I have HG Quilts on order, should be here by then.
Another noob in the Charlotte area. :)
Love Smashville and what the Preds have done there.
I love walking around Nashville, Broadway is a lot a fun.
Thanks for the invitation, my HG Phoenix and Burrow are still 8 weeks out maybe.
Must be a NC thing for all of us now joining up at the same time. Lol
Who will stop the rain? Lol.
I’ve been to New Brunswick, beautiful country up there. :)
As a gift for Christmas, my MIL got me the Econ Phoenix 40 with 2oz overfill, I ordered Econ Burrow 40 with 2oz overfill.
Can’t wait for them to get here :).
Will do, I plan on doing an easy over night trip after I get my Hammock Gear stuff in, might head up to Grandfather area for that.
Let’s go Canes ( Lose4Hughes at least this season lol)
From the movie Willow (which I misspelled a long time ago on another forum and just kept using it
Hello,
New Hanger from GasVegas NC, had a ENO, traded it for a new hiking pack, then got a Warbonnet Blackbird.
Have a 40 degree with 2oz overfill Hammock Gear Phoenix and Burrow in order (9ish...
