    Your Best Gear of 2009

    I saw a thread about this on another site and thought it would be interesting here. Not sure where to put it though since your best new gear could be non-hammock related. So list your top 3 things and why you feel it is your best new gear. Also you need to have used it on trips and not just in your backyard.

    Who cares about showers, gourmet food, using flush toilets. Just keep on walking and being away from it all.

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    No particular order - MWUQ4, JRB hood, Warbonnet Blackbird. Gossamer Gear Murmur is probably next on the list.

    Definitely the WBBB first, then my DIY UQ, and finally my DIY maccat.
