I own one. I use it with an 11-foot Warbonnet Eldorado. I carry it as insurance when car-camping.
You have to rig it so your gathered ends get pulled as close to the eyelets as you can get them....
Since you're taking the inflatable pad as a 'just in case' item when going with friends, I would use a tiny little mylar space blanket as a ground cover. If you're lucky enough to find a site with...
I have a 0.9 oz/yard Hummingbird Hammocks Pelican tarp. It weighed 12.3 oz before seam-sealing. It has rolled and hemmed edges with no extra grosgrain. There are four corner pullouts, plus the...
I came up with a way to use the minimum amount of shockcord and have adjustable tension on some hardware-free 'toggles'. Basically I used a large knot that holds into a loop of zing-it. ...

I'm not sure if this is a new idea, but it's new to me and I think it's worth sharing.
I just got a new tarp and when rigging it up I tried to minimize the amount of shockcord...
I've now used my Mier 10x16 for about 100 days in all sorts of weather. It is awesome if weight isn't an issue.
I've used it as a flat canopy over camp with misters set up around it in the summer...
For my 11 foot Warbonnet Eldorado (same as XLC with different top) I use a Snugpak Jungle Blanket XL. It's very affordable, and fits PERFECTLY with no modifications, meaning I can use it as a camp...
I just had a big learning experience regarding mosquito netting. I have a Warbonnet Eldorado that is the same as the WB Blackbird minus the shelf. I am currently camping next to what was a...
You've probably made your decision and gotten your quilt already but I'll post this here in the hopes that it will help someone else out.
I got a 0°F Wooki and have used it at temperatures of...
Hey Shooge,
¿ehhh, perhapsa you could posta video on zee vashing of zee downa?
Down is a byproduct of the meat industry. More ducks are consumed than geese worldwide, so duck down is cheaper. It's kind of like the difference in turkey and chicken consumption in the U.S.. ...
I recently stumbled across a thesis on down. I'm not sure if anyone has posted this or not, but I just shared it with one of the bigger quilt manufacturers and they had not seen it yet. Hopefully...
"Has the OP ever been to a group hang?" NO! I haven't. I was looking forward to the one I'm about to attend that is going to have over 200 people there. Judging from the comments on this post,...
I had so much fun with Microsoft Paint the first time, here's another one!

For storage, google "bath toy storage" and "shower organizer" you can add "mesh" to either of those and probably get better results. Honestly, spending around $8.00 for 50 cents of mesh doesn't...
I hope this doesn't ruin one of your favorite pictures McBlaster:lol:

I had a dumb idea. Sorry to waste your bandwidth.
Jungle Jim - Nobody likes stupid rules. That's why I think it's great for advocates to proactively help develop reasonable rules instead of a park administrator having to adopt crazy rules that make...
I recently rigged up a king size down quilt that I found at a thrift store for $10 (Score!:jj:) using some of the methods described here. One thing that hasn't been mentioned that I think you may...
I have a 10x16 foot MIER Waterproof Tarp that came with 6 red aluminum hexagonal Stakes and 6 red reflective lines (the site says they come with 12 now). This very big tarp only weighs 3 lbs with...
That makes all the sense in the world. Will Mr. Ranger understand? Do they teach rangers physics? Did he enjoy his cup of coffee this morning? You just never know.
I believe I'm all signed on and paid up! I'm really looking forward to this. I had no idea this was in my future when I got on HammockForums this morning to see how long I'd have to wait and how...
When I'm in my hammock, I like to be 'Snug As a Bug In a Rug.'
I figured I could also be that anytime I'm on the HF.
WHoooHoooo! I just got approved to post. This is my very first post to HF. I guess I better stay on topic, I read the rules.
What got me into hammocking? A gift.
I guess about ten years...
