That is awesome! A quality trap will make sleeping in your hammock mostly worry free... a rain shower blew in some time in the middle of the night this weekend, I only rousted from sleep long enough...
What a wonderful extended weekend to remember the sacrifices others have made for us. I hope everyone was able to spend it with love ones... life is good!
Thanks for all the kind words about the...
Finally got around to finishing my JC Penny top quilt. I used two 3xL down puffer jackets (form that crazy sale they were running last winter) which were completely taken apart. Most of the panels'...
nor season... porch mode frames the view and opens conversation from the hammock. Life is good under the porch! :thumbup:
EastSider here... I little slammed right now and heading out of town at the end of the week, but schedule should be clearing up a little.
I used one recently as an UQ protector and to see if it would bump my rating. Got down to ~16*F with snow. It might have help, but for all the wrong reasons... was worried about sweating. This was my...

The picture was taken facing the southwest, which was the direction the wind/snow was blowing....
Spent two night in Red River Gorge, 2/16 & 17. First night was the colder of the two with a low of 18*. Combo of hammock > IX UQ > JPC UQ > UQ protector very warm with fleece pants + long john top &...
+1 Did this for my father-in-law... worked like a charm. You can even use sticks in the loops and balance them across the ridgeline to help take up the excess netting. (But beware of son-in-laws that...
Truth... and I'd also add that I could care less if REI gets the picture.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you want the fabric breathable.
I'm in it to win it!
I am not sure about that as there were two I bought at their location. Worth checking before making the trip to another store. I can tell you the store they "ordered" my extra 5 from is over 50 miles...
You can ask the store to look for jackets in the size you want at another location, pay for them, and have them shipped to the store by you for free. Saves you money as they are double online.
JCP online will not honor the store price.... they well ship more form another store without costing you anything extra. >$75 ships to your door.
Picked up the only 3XLT JCP had left, but did grab my 4yr old two XLTs for a summer UQ. Anyways, my wife being the supportive coach's widow she is... she called JCP online and talked them into giving...
That's awesome as I feel the same way... nice to hear from you!
They say if you don't like the weather in Cincinnati to wait a day.... well from weeks of 20's and 30's to Saturday night when it started in the mid 50's and ended in the low 60's! So much for my...
Awesome... wish I had come across this a while ago. Thanks for putting it together. Just goes to show there is always something to learn on this site!
I was given an Army sleeping bag system from my father-in-law a few years back. The sleeping bags I have used often fully aware of the weight penalty. (Remember they were the right price) The system...
I'm looking forward to hanging with some fellow Buckeyes, but its the height of basketball season... so I'll have to pass. Spring is right around the corner though!
The morning after on the Little Miami river, Cincinnati OH, after watching a Reds game at the boat club... hanging a hammock is a great alternative to driving in those situations! Breakfast from the...

I've been looking for a few weeks also... I feel like the grasshopper who played all summer and now is left in the cold without a DIY UQ!
Go Mustangs! hahaha
Been trolling these waters for a few months now. Getting back into the outdoors after settling down and starting a family. Loved the idea of elevating my perspective! Have been soloing and doing...
