    Bringing my DIY gathered end hammock, DIY down underquilt, underquilt-as-topquilt made by mikeinflaz, JRB Stealth quilt, JRB down sleeves.

    Debating between my JRB Hammock Hut tarp and my custom tarp made by Brian at OES, configured into Winter Tarp mode. I may bring both.

    I'm making a hammock sock type thing as soon as my material gets in, some large snakeskins for the new tarp, and maybe a down hat if I can get the down in time (temp. budget constraint).

    what we are bringing

    Thorweren and I are bringing the following:
    Sleeping Gear
    1 eno single nest
    1 DIY gathered end hammock
    1 HH ultralight explorer (zipper mod)
    1 Speer snugfit (Talk about an unexpected Christmas Gift from Jen!)
    1 DIY Fishinfinn underquilt (Thanks buddy)
    1 DIY Fishinfinn Hammock Sock (I WILL be making one of these)
    1 SPE (Thank you Cannibal)
    1 HH hex tarp
    1 8x10 equinox tarp
    1 montbell super stretch hugger #3
    2 DIY top quilts (if I can get them finished!)

    That is all I can think of in the way of winter gear for the trip. I am going to have much in the way of clothes since it will be a challenge to keep thorwren warm. I am sure I left out a few things. We are bringing some really good stew to share (not sure if we will have 30-40 servings but we will try to back as much as we can to the shelter. At this point I need to get a hold of a NON lightweight backpack. The little Jam2 isnt going to cut it for me on this one (I will fill it up for the wife to carry).

    I am much excited to meet you all and have some good winter camping.

    Ashman, if you can make it, you can carpool with Hooch and me if you want. Leaving Friday mid-morning and getting back Sunday early afternoon.

    The Mt. Rogers Hangout is the next weekend, Jan 23, 24, 25th. Did you mean you couldn't go then?
