    Thanks everyone for chiming in! Sounds like several folks have had luck with the UQP so I'll give that a try on my next trip as it's unfortunately well below that 6k limit. I think it's at a...

    I'm pretty sure the Summer ship has already sailed. We were at Goliad this past weekend for their Spring Floatilla. Forecast was for highs in the 90 and lows in the 70's. Hot and muggy with a...

    Howdy (from Texas)

    I looked at something like the Grand Trunk before - I think it was the Pet Palace? - for backpacking with my dog. Weight was a concern. Might be okay for car camping, but can't justify 2lbs in the...
  8. Mosquito Solutions when it's too hot for an underquilt

    I have a single layer hammock (with a zip on bugnet), treated with permethrin, and almost always use an underquilt and that's generally worked great for mosquitos. But this past weekend in the swamp...

    Glad to hear permetherin works. I have some on order. Unfortunately the hammock got here before the spray. I thought spraying myself with bug spray well enough would get me through a night in my...
