Video: John Rock Group Hang 2012

Glad to see that the underquilt wound up working out after a little troubleshooting.

How are you liking that Fronkey bug net so far?

Looks like everyone ate well at that hang (seems to be a theme here...).

Thanks for sharing!

Ear plugs are a good idea, lol! Saw blade on the pooper scooper is a good idea. Someone snoring in their hammy, is someone enjoying their hammy (doesn't do fellow hangers much good, but still). Moving the under quilt high up to the head end helps minimize the head squash.

Great to see a group hang in action, thanks for the video, FireInMyBones!

It was gret to be surrounded like that. I kind of felt like an Ewok. I think Hammock Gear can make a trap for you out of the green, but it'd be special order. Once I got to sleep there was not really a need for the earplugs. QiWiz and MedicineMan came up with the saw bladed trowel, but it worked well.

I too am glad with the UQ working well. The Fronkey net works well. No bugs in the hammock with me. Not as restrictive as I thought. The restriction was in the UQ.

That is one of the things I like about the videos, it makes reliving it all that much easier.

Looks like I missed a great group of hammockers... some I've met & some I've not. That's what happens when you take a job that requires your weekends

FireInMyBones... enjoyed the video brother! Hope to see you in camp some day.

HB & RF... I see you have learned the value of a large social tarp during the rainy times

Good job!

Nice to see yet another perspective on ya'lls good time out there!
I do so enjoy the sound of rain on a tarp.
Glad that it was a successful time in the piney woods.

Well, you do what you have to so you can support your family and hobbies. I hope we can meet up sometime. The group tarp came in handy.

Very successful. The rain on the tarp was great, more comforting than the snoring sawmill and bear.

Enjoyed the video! Notice the "perfect trees", as if they had been planted just for a hang! RF and HB found the spot. Wish I could have been there...
