Just did a fantastic few days on the Wonderland Trail. High altitude flowers for days, mountain goats, dangerous glissading and great time among old friends.
But the better news it despite my...
Tree straps are a lot nicer to trees and can severely reduce abrasions to the bark that can get infected. I say go for additional dispersed surface area, a strap with 2 inches. Trees Best Friend from...
Still incomplete but i think its much easier to stealth in a hammock than tarp.
Hello from the great city of Durham (not as scary as it use to be)
Everyone should check out and support the amazing Mountains to Sea Trail spanning this AMAZING state.

Good job with the video. Welcome to the beautiful world of the hammock!
Nothing like a cold swimming hole during a hot day in the woods, pulling a 7 foot saw in a land where the chainsaw is illegal, chasing a bear from trash, and digging a cat hole as fast as you can in...
I became a lifetime hanger when I discovered you didnt have to get out of your sleeping bag to pee

Looks pretty cool and is a fun take on an Ultralight shelter.

I liked the idea of being outside all the time as appose to zipped up in a tent. I could always see the weather and could pee in my sleeping bag. I found heaven in the hang.
I founded a stewardship company called Deep South Mountaineering with my best friend. We really care about the environment and the areas we all love to hang in so much. Half of our time is dedicated...
Start out at a comfortable rate with lots of breaks and you'll be at 3 mph before you know it
I use a second bad that's a summer bag that's small enough to pack in addition and weighs little enough not to blow my load. 20 ounces of Sleeping bag extra adds closer to 30 degrees.
For an...
I did with 3 other hangers other than myself last year and had no problem. The issues some people come with are the Whites.
Lots of trees on that trail. You shouldnt have much of a problem with a...
I'm 3 miles from it now and can't image many spots with bad hanging. Are you going under quilt in May? 2 Sleeping pads? I might be on the long trail then too.
