    First Time in the 250

    I put up my brandie new Clark 250 camping with the scouts a little while back. I loved it. I'm still fiddling a bit with figuring out how to set it up. So far just using all stock equipment except for some Nite-Ize clips on the tarp.

    A little, flashlight & reading glasses on the inside & I slipped my hard-cover book into the outside pocket when I was done reading at night. I only had to get up once in the middle of the night (Scout was yelling 'cause he had to go to the bathroom & couldn't wake up his buddy) and it was so much nicer than crawling out of my Hennessy... I think I'm in love.

    Excellent photo's. If you don't mind my asking, what kind of UQ is that?

    Granted:
    Here is a link to the KAQ New River Webpage.

    KAQ UQ's:http://arrowheadequipment.webs.com/a...ts/show/945132

    They are now produced by Paul at AHE. I have one from before Paul bought out Kick *** Quilts and one that he makes. I use them with my NX-200 as a TQ and UQ. Check out my avatar to see the UQ(pre-AHE).

    I'm a little slow replying. Bigbamaguy has it nailed; it's a KAQ New River. Works really well. I'm really new to hanging, so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I do know it kept my fat little "buttocks" nice and toasty.
