Hey Folks,
After some browsing on here I've finally decided to just make a thread and specify my needs so that folks can weigh in - it's hard to get those specific questions answered!
I have been hammocking only since early June when my fabulous folks bought me a Clarke North American for my B-Day. I asked for one based on the suggestion of a buddy, but have since fallen in love with this hobby (thanks HF.net) and am compelled to spend more and more of my precious time in the great outdoors. I've upgraded to some whoopie slings, finally figured out a couple of knots and am messing around with a ridge-line. Oh, the joys!
It's time for an underquilt. I can't believe I'm going to spend THAT much money on this thing, which is exactly why I'm here. If I'd been on the forums before my birthday I'd probably be hanging in a much less expensive hammock and have my UQ already!
I am thinking I want to start with a "worst-case scenario" UQ, one that gets deep into the cold temperatures and covers the whole body; I figure it's better to prepare for the worst than to be underprepared. Plus I'm going to hang with a bunch of lunatics in the middle of winter (NEHHA) and I don't want to have to borrow TOO much of their gear!
Any suggestions? I've been browsing and will have to wait a couple of weeks before I make any moves financially, so any input is good as the great UQ search begins!
Thanks Clarke Fans
