    Talking VIDEO: Crowsnest, the Gorge Rat Edition

    Well if you've not gathered by now I'm a fan of Stormcrow's Crowsnest. I first got to use mine in Linville Gorge this past May. Amazingly light weight, well made and everything I wanted in a 3/4 UQ.

    So ... just had to put together one my bits of foolishness. Hope ya enjoy it and get a chuckle or two.

    Adam ... I love it ... especially since I have the one and only Gorge Rat Limited Edition model!

    Holy Smokes!

    Goodness gracious! That was awesome!

    Thank you so much Hawkeye! Man, you make some of the best movies..even when you are not talking about my stuff.

    I can't believe you leaked my new camouflage fabric Well, I suppose I could not keep it a secret much longer. It was pretty hard to source that one out. I had to pull some strings with some people that are "high up", if you know what I mean. The worst thing about the fabric is actually making the quilt. I have NO idea if my double stitching is straight or not...

    I DO look forward with see you all again soon!...

    Hey pal ... loving the UQ ... and sorry about the technology leak! Could you ask the mothership to leave the swamp behind the house ... it's freaking out the dogs!

    Looking forward to seeing you again my friend ... need to get your technique for "pot smut" down!

    Love the camo, Hawk-eye. I need some of that when my wife comes looking for me to complete her honey-do list.

    I need one more underquilt to outfit the family. I have a Leigh's, I recently bought a used Yeti, and it looks like I need a Crowsnest to round out the bunch. That is one fluffy underquilt.

    Thanks for the video. BTW, is everyone on HF an expert videographer?!

    Sooo, Adam what's the price on the new camo, I'm sure its pricey, can you make me a tarp with it?

    Hawk-eye, good job on the video...a cigar smoking crow, that too funny.

    I do believe that new fabric is woven from UnObtanium thread in an old Liver Mush mine deep in Linville Gorge. That is why Adam was hiking so fast. He had to check on production while in the area........
