Do you ship to Canada yet?
I've been looking at these lately too and found the specs.
Weight cap 440 lbs
Weight 2.6 lbs.
Has anyone used one of these? I can't find a review anywhere.
I just started using the Marlin Spike Hitch this year and I love it. It's easy and fast. I use a piece of fiberglass tent pole for my spike. I had a few short peices lying around after making a pole...
I use the stuff sack from my underquilt filled with my spare clothing that I took with me. If it's cold I make sure that any extra warm clothing I might want is in there too. That way I know where it...
Thanks now all I have to do is find a place in Canada to get the poles from with the 145 angle in the Centre. I've already sewn the pole pockets when I made my fleece underquilt.
I stumbled across this post back in June and am now so glad that I have found it again as I am thinking about changing my external pole mod to be an internal mod like yours. How is it treating you so...
Congrats to jlambert94! And Happy birthday!
Thanks pgibson.
Does anyone know the difference between the beginner kit and the apprentice kit?
I would love to join you guys but I just made plans to go in with a couple buddies ealier in September, and I can't justify going into the park twice when there's still unfinished projects around the...

I have two friends who I'm trying to get into this but it's so expensive when your just starting out.
I think its awsome your doing this
I love it, "bear taco". My one buddy is literally going to fall out of his hammock laughing when I call it that. We're definitely going to start using this term regularly.
I wish I had something like that when I started out... however where I camp I don't think I could make it though a night with only a half net, the blackflies and mosquitos are relentless depending...
Maybe an iron on patch on both sides, one you might get for a winter jacket. I would probably take it to a seamstress or a fabric store and ask their expertise.
That is awsome. Good job
I personal like the full length as I feel it allows for adjusting the position of the tarp easily.
Count me in. I think it is awsome that your doing this. I'll definitely go for load bearing one, my dog loves hanging in my hammock with me.
In my opinion, option B your way more likely to die. At that point the bear has food by the time you wake up and scare it. And now it's going to either try to defend the food from you taking it or...
I recently tried stringing a line from two trees and hanging my pack from that in the middles with a pulley. we put all our food and pots up even our toothpaste and coffee. I have a second line that...
that is a brilliant idea! I am doing this the next time I set up my superfly.
That sounds like an awsome idea. If only I had the double zipper mod on my Hennessy. I'm going to play around with...
I recently tried hanging a smaller hammock under my hammock to keep all my gear off the ground. It worked great and kept everything dry. But when the wind picked up I had to put everything into my...
I had that same problem with the main line for my superfly and my bear bag rope on my last trip. Thankfully it wasn't raining on us. Now I'm trying really hard to coil up all my ropes neatly...
I had a great time. This was my first time trying winter camping, and thanks to highboy for lending me an underquilt I slept comfortably warm all night. I also have to thank him for lending me a set...
Thanks Chard, that sounds like a good plan. my underquilt is rated to 25F (-4C) but i'm planning un using a self inflating pad too.
I'm not sure if i'll be spending the night yet, but i was thinking i'd come by and meet everyone (if thats alright). I just got my first underquilt and did a test hang in my garage and my back froze...
I just got my first underquilt and it's rated for around 20F. I did a test hang in my garage a couple nights ago and I kept waking up with a cold back. It never dropped below 40F in the garage and I...
Congrats Greybear!
Thanks Tncamper for doing this give away. Merry Christmas everyone
This is a great deal. My parents got me the expedition zip for Christmas last year and i got the cub too. It was quite the suprise Christmas morning. I contacted the company about upgrading the cub...
I'm in. Its awsome your doing this! Merry Christmas
I just learned that there will be an outdoors show in Toronto Feb 20 - 22.

Does anyone know if there is usually any hammock vendors at these...
Thanks Chard,
I'm sure i have enough extension cords to reach lol. When I'm at my parents for the holidays I'll try to borrow some of my dads old camping gear to be on the safe side. I'm slowly...
I hope to join you all there, assuming Santa is good this year I'll have the gear I'll need. This would be my first winter hang.
This might be a stupid question but, does having a bigger tarp with...
I used to go camping with my dad and brother when I was younger. One year we brought a cheap mesh hammock with us to just relax on during the day around camp. Since then I haven't gone camping...
Wow that was fast. Thank you. I've added it to my wish list for Santa and I'll be happy if I get either one for Christmas.
Thanks. He's about 5'8, do you think that he'll have a problem with it being too short? If he like it he's going to get one for his wife too, but if he doesnt he'll probably stay with a tent and...
I was planning on getting the warbonnet superfly tarp, http://www.warbonnetoutdoors.com/superfly/ , but now I'm thinking about the OMW. Can anyone give me a little insite on which one might be the...
Has anyone actually used one of the Grand Trunk Skeeter Beeter Pro hammocks before? I'm trying to put together an inexpensive hammock set for my freind for our trip into Mink Lake in Algonquin Park...
I use the taut line knot with the rope that came stock on my Hennessey expedition. It is an adjustable knot and is fairly easy. Just have to make sure it's tight and you test it before you get in...
Thanks everyone. I've noticed that, I've only been out on one trip so far but I never want to sleep on a root or a rock or a slope again! I can't wait to go out again. I want to build a turtledog...
If only they delivered to Canada.
I'm still pretty new to hammock camping. Do you think this tarp will work well on my Hennessey expedition. The one that came with it doesn't provide enough coverage in heavy rain.
...
No mine is a side zip! I think that the ground sheet for my wife's tent is about 2 feet too long for the tent. I'm thinking about cutting the excess off and use that. It would be roughly 2'x8'. Now...
Does anyone have any recommendation for what size of ground sheet to use. I'm currently using a Hennessy Expedition and if i ever do have to use it like a bivy I want to protect the bottom.
Thanks for making this. I've been stumbling through the site learning as I went but there were a few basic things that I couldn't figure out on my own.
Thanks. I'll definitely want to check out some of those group hangs.
I really like the suspension and tree straps that came with my Hennessey Expedition. I use the taut line knot that only takes a couple second to tie and works similar to a woopy sling. It's free and...
Hi every one. I first learned of hammock camping a few years ago and have been interested ever since. I finally got a camping hammock this year. Actually my mom got it for me. When I opened th box...
