Hello,
I am looking for a HG DCF palace. Color not important. I love full coverage but don’t feel like lugging a 3 lb tarp all over tarnation. Maybe you bought one and don’t use it enough? Maybe...
Hi all,
Currently I have a silpoly winter tarp w doors. I want a palace but wondering if it will hold up to the beating of winter weather as well as silpoly?? Thoughts??
I picked up one of these on forum too and it is hard to get used to. I found that to get best coverage I have to overlap suspension and tarp tie outs...hang it low. Once weight of your body is in...
I need a wooki for blackbird xlc that can hang in the middle of a blizzard. Just looking at warbonnet page and I think maybe someone has one they’d want to let go of for less than retail. Color...
Ok I’ll take it. I’ve never bought on here before. Let me know how to proceed
Any wiggle room on price?
Give me a little time to think about it. It’s more than I want to pay with more frills than I need.
I need an offer that is below retail. Otherwise I might as well buy new. Whatcha got?
Looking for something affordable to lighten my summer/fall backpacking load. Lighter and cheaper the better. Please let me know what you got! Brand not important.

Ahh thank you all so much for the good info. I looked into loco libre. I am considering that or a scandv from warbonnet. Also might contact ugq directly and see about a custom piece (I really like...

Hello!
Looking for warbonnet winter:
1- underquilt protector for updated bb. Double zipper channel preferred.

Hello all,
I have an entry level setup and I want to upgrade to a bbxlc or eldorado. Can I still use the Econ uq that I got from HG? Or is that uncomfortable/impossible w that hammock style? Any...
Definitely not 7 degrees with a 20 mph wind. That’s what I had last weekend. Give me 40-50 and it’s paradise
Hi - what Model is this? Was it custom? I am not finding similar 10’ listing on Warbonnet site? I may be interested
I got the bandit 0 tq and a Econ UQ from hg. Both are light and warm. I do think I like the quality of the UGQ quilt better than the hg. Just a feel preference. First hang with both this weekend!
Guys I got my UGQ tq today and it is beyond awesome. Thanks for directing me toward some top gear! My HG uq should be arriving tomorrow!

I just looked it up and amazon says hydrostatic head is 8000 on fortress.
Ha I give up. I will definitely call HG Monday and see if they will modify my order to zero UQ. Also I will cave and spend another couple bills on a zero TQ. I am short so the eno is plenty large...
Can I run emergency blanket between UQ and hammock??

I was hoping to cheap out on top quilt because of cost. Because I am not a pro like y’all, I won’t use this set up enough to justify spending $700 on it.
