    I did it!!

    After lurking for several months, reading a lot of posts, and watching Shug's videos I finally jumped in. Today I purchased a WBBB 1.1 DL and a BMJ tarp. I also purchased a Gossamer Gear 1/4" pad. I am a backpacker and I hope this new purchase will make the backpacking experience even better. Thanks all for sharing your knowledge on this forum. I hope I made the right decision.

    And the wait begins...

    I'll say you made a real good decision at the very least!

    You done good! Nice to have you out of the shadows and into the fold (I lurked for a month before joining because I really dislike forums--this one is different). Hope you enjoy yourself out there. Let us know all about it .
    You're gonna need a bigger hammock

    Welcome to the forum. I'm getting a WBBB this week too. I got jinx'd by Shug's videos too. I started watching one about six months ago. Some crazy dude in the middle of the woods camping with a polk in 26 below zero. CRAZY.

    I took my 13 YOA daughter camping in 2' of snow the next week. ;o)

    welcome to Hammock Forums and hey from high point nc.
    there is a ton of stuff here to read, learn and ask about.
    if it's hammock related it's here or still waiting to be invented.
    hang on and have fun.

    home is where your hammock is.
