    BGT Owner Review of the HH SuperShelter

    I have posted my Owner Review of the HH SuperShelter & OverCover to the BackpackGearTest site:

    http://www.backpackgeartest.org/revi...0Kurt%20Papke/

    Or:

    http://tinyurl.com/59g9xx

    Note that Hennessy did not supply the shelter - owner reviews are written by gear testers on equipment they purchased on their own.

    Those of you who follow this forum won't find a lot of new info there, but newbie hammock hangers or folks considering purchasing a SuperShelter may learn a thing or two.

    I'm always interested in feedback on how I could improve my reviews, but I'm not likely to update this report now that its been posted. That said, if I have some major new revelation over the next year I may add an amendment to it, so if you see a glaring omission, let me know.

    I hope you find it useful.

    --Kurt

    p.s. thanks to Adkpiper for his feedback on an early draft.

    Hi Kurt
    I have read a few of your reports and apps
    You always produce a nice report and must have lots of time to get out in the bush.
    All the best

    That's one of the most thorough BGT reports I've seen. Good stuff.
