    Howdy all

    I have been camping with a hammock for 32 years.
    Was looking for a rain fly last year when found this site.
    It is full of all kinds of stuff that I would never have thought
    of. Snakeskins, Whoopie Slings, insulation top and bottom,
    tree huggers and all the other things.

    My hammocks are 2 net style about 20 yrs old, one cloth that I
    picked up in South America about 12 yrs ago, a pocket hobo that
    is 11 yrs old and 3 new ones from grand trunk, have not yet used the new ones.

    Rain fly was a old and I mean old military rain poncho, have a new
    one from one of the places found on th net. Use my old military sleeping
    bag in winter, rest of the time a wool blanket a sheet and no see bug net.

    Well that is much to much for a first time post

    see ya'll on the trail

    Welcome to the community and to a new addiction. The amount of knowledge that people have here and that is shared in insane. I have learned so much in such little time.
