Hey guys been out of it for years, just trying to get my head around my old gear to understand what I got when I was into it and why?
Can anyone point me to the manufacturer please cheers. 184389
Howdy all, long time since I’ve posted or lurked. Firstly, my heart sunk when I found that Clark hammocks were closing, only to then find Dutch as the saviour!! Sorry I’m Clark hammock partial lol.

Hi all, on the NX 250 what would you suggest is a good width from the head and foot gathered end to their respective tie off points (not including suspension), as well as height at their respective...

so from what i read black bears are not a threat like grissly bears, but just ensure your food is hung away from where you are and dont mess with a bear cup or mum might get angry and that grissly...

Ive got a couple of questions for those of you who camp in the US, firstly, in all honesty how do you deal with the concern regarding bears?

well ive posted another thread up asking for a manufacturer to get back to me to make me an awesome UQ but i havent had a lot of takers, so i guess i'll have to do some research of my own, here goes:...
hmmmmm no takers.....i might have to start doing some research
John, no doubts, but rather than looking to send off 10-15 pm's id much rather have a manufacturer know the hammock, and have the passion to tell me they will make me an awesome one!!:rolleyes:
yer looking forward to seeing the pics, thanks
Ok, no foolin around, i know there are some very talented people on here who make UQ's for a living, so ive got a simple ask, here goes.

As for those annoying biters in forest areas around melbourne australia i have trialled the hammock and not been bitten, they were so bad while they tried to attack me through the bottom fabric...
I got my Clark NX-250 in late 2011 and can say for sure it has handled the worst of mosquito's in area's of forest in Melbourne Australia at least.
I have hung out in area's where it was so bad i...
i own a Clark NX250 and you could fall out of it......if you put more weight out the side of it being silly that is, but to tip it in the sense of 'flip' it....i dont think so that would be very...
thanks, i can see how they could attach to the tarp end, but how would they clip to the rope without another attachment point on the rope?
thanks Harstad, they are similar to what i use to tie off the ridgeline already, i was mainly looking for something smaller and lighter that is a quick clip on off, i might have to make something up,...
youve given me some good things to think about there much appreciated
yer exactly mouse, my plan is to pull the rope ridgeline straight out and fix it to its points, then rip the rain fly out and hang it over and affix it to the point i want it on the ridgeline....
...
ok thanks ive got the idea, it looks like a 2mm thick piece of cord with an improvised prusik knot, its a good idea and i might make em interum period but id rather some faster clips of sort, thanks...
Can you guys post a link or pic or something as to identify what you mean by a 'soft shackle'? thanks
hey thankyou, it sounds kinda what im looking for but id like to remove the prusik loops attached to the 5mm cord ridgeline. Rather having one component attached to the clip fly loops that can be...
Hi all ive got the Clark Vertex rain fly and i added a 5mm thick ridgeline of which it connects to.
