Thanks Shug! Yes, you identify it as 12 feet in the video. Looks like a really nice tarp for winter/storms. The hammock is the first thing I've gotten from Superior Gear, but they seem to have added...
That's interesting. Checked out the Superior Gear site and as HW says they offer 12 foot or 14 foot tarps. Not an 11 footer to be found. They would seem to know their products best. I know several...
Thanks Phantom. I rarely get the tarp perfectly centered either. I saw the Hammock Gear Leap Year sale yesterday and sprang for a 12 foot hex tarp at an excellent price. I think I was just looking...
I use the Superfly more in the winter. I have a Minifly I carry more often in the summer to save weight and a hex too. I'm sure the Superfly would be fine, but wasn't sure about the others. I have...
I just got an 11 foot Superior Gear insulated hammock and have been playing around with the ridgeline length. I have found that 117 inches is the most comfortable which is longer than my other...
Simply Light Designs has their Trail Winder under quilt. Similar to the Wooki, but synthetic.
The Scout LT from SimpleShot is pretty versatile and easy to install bands on. I shoot clay ammo which shatters on impact and dissolves in rain. As long as you are aware of your surroundings, you...
Sold to Salt.
I bring a regular old fashioned book to read by my headlamp. Nearly all my winter camping is in sub-freezing temps and my phone doesn't run long. I sit by the fire for a bit. If there's enough...
Jacks R Better Shenandoah multi use quilt - $120 shipped to continental US. 78" x 48" with 850 fill down and weighs just 14.5 ounces. Rated to 40°. This is a very versatile quilt and can be used as a...
For winter in Michigan I would want a tarp with "doors", extra fabric on the ends which can be sealed up to block the wind. Many people have used poly tarps to start, but I wouldn't want to count on...
Payment received. Sniveller sold.
Sniveller sale pending to Kmazuro.
White Cloud sold to joe411k.
Jacks R Better No Sniveller multi use quilt - $125 shipped to continental US. 46" wide and 78" long. Rated to 25°-30°. This is a very versatile quilt and can be used as a top quilt or underquilt...
I'll take the other superior gear suspension.
Looks great Derch! Does it make the hammock feel restricted at all? Or does it just feel like a normal UQ?
My first camping hammock was a bottom entry Hennessey. That was a great hammock to start with. I had read a bunch on here before buying it but I was still pretty confused. I wasn't sure what the...
Thanks Nualle! I love my recumbent. Most comfortable bike I've ever ridden. After I rurned 50 I became more focused on comfort, switching from tent to hammock and upright bike to recumbent.
Payment received. Hennessey sold to Goatsrfun.
All items sold. Closing post.
Raven sold to Peppy.
Payment received. Blackbird sold to Devaspark.
Thanks, Ithica, good tip.
I'm a lucky guy. My wife got me a Tensa4 stand for Christmas. I plan to add the solo conversion kit soon. I set it up in the backyard then decided to try it out for a quick overnight in a state park...
Still available and prices dropped again.
Warbonnet Blackbird $110
Dream Hammock Raven $110
Hennessey Expedition Bundle $130
Any trades? Anyone get a new tarp or UQ for Christmas and want to swap an old one for a hammock? Looking for 11' hex tarp or down UQ.
Bump and prices dropped as shown in OP.
I have a few hammocks for sale or would consider trades for an 11-foot hex tarp (Mamajamba, Quest, Trail Haven, etc.), 20/40 degree down UQ either full size or 3/4 (Incubator, Phoenix, Zeppelin,...
I'll take it. The 10’6”, 1.7 Hyper-D XL, Dark Olive hammock.
Raven and Blackbird still available. I hung both hammocks outside today. The photos in the original post were taken in the basement. Here are some photos from outside where you can see them better.
...
Price drop. Edited in original post. Now just $130 each for 2 great hammocks.
I haven't weighed it, but when I bought it I was told 23.54 ounces. On the website it says a new lightweight double layer blackbird is 21.75 ounces so that is probably right with the whoopies...
I have two great hammocks for sale. Both have been used in the field but are still in very good shape. No tears or holes and all zippers work. Prices include shipping to the continental US. Willing...
Ridge Creek XL sold to nulpunkt.
I would be willing to ship to Denmark if you pay the shipping cost. Will send you a PM.
Prices dropped on underquilts. New prices reflected in original post.
Adirondack Hexcam Ridge Creek XL dropped to $120.
Olive Jarbidge dropped to $65.
theRVN, how comfortable is his hammock? I saw a netted 11 foot hammock with suspension included at his Etsy shop for just $70. It looks like it is narrower than most hammocks, I think it said 54"....
Warbonnet Ridgerunner sold. Underquilts still available.
For Sale
Warbonnet Ridgerunner $130 delivered in US SOLD
I am selling a single layer Ridgerunner bridge hammock in perfect condition. I bought this last winter and only used it 4 nights but...
Thanks for the responses. Sounds like the Tensa would work as long as I make sure it is staked solidly.
Thanks Shug. Your insight is always appreciated.
Tensa Solo question - how does the solo hold up in bad weather? Anyone use them during thunderstorms or high winds? I do a lot of bicycle camping and wild camp. Over the past couple years finding a...
I'm in New Haven, CT for work this week and got excited for a minute.
I have been using the down socks from Goosefeet for a couple years. What I have found is that if my feet are even a little bit cold when I put them on, my feet will not warm up. If my feet are warm...
Thanks for the replies. Sounds like a double layer would be more versatile if I decide I want to use a pad, plus I'm not terribly concerned about the few extra ounces. That single layer Warbonnet...
Thanks cougarmeat and DrPhun. I mostly bike camp so don't worry too much about a few extra ounces if it makes me more comfortable. I think my shoulder width is pretty average so shoulder squeeze may...
I know there's been a recent post about double layer for GE hammocks. But I'm considering trying a bridge hammock and am wondering whether to get a single or double layer. I've read through a bunch...
I use 1/8 shock cord for tarp tensioners. I think I emailed Dutchware and that was their recommendation.
The alpaca wool beanie looks nice. Looks like it's a little warmer than merino wool. Thanks for the tip.
I tried turning it inside out and the pressure from the elastic is the same. When looking at it I realized the front doesn't have elastic, it is just stitching.. Maybe it's just to small for my...
