It was a nice weekend with nice weather and nice people. Can't go wrong with that combo!

Hrrrrm the low was 41 when I checked, and just now it's showing 37 on google. It better quit dropping! My UQ is the Phoenix 20, no concerns there. It was hanging super loose at the fall sprawl and...

I'm in!

Also I want to properly join PSH (and maybe score one of those super nifty cool patches if there are any left? ;)) so what better way to do it than in person instead of online.

We are...

Cool!

Entered, shared, and bumped!

It is a little confusing at first. Once hung though I got it all to work right with just a little tugging here and there until it stuck. Lost a girlfriend like that once, glad the quilt was less...

My first night in a hammock it was a crazy storm. The thunder and lightening were a little startling at first but very quickly it became almost soothing in a weird primal sort of way. Through how...

I was worried I couldn't sleep in a hammock, as a side sleeper. Honestly the first night was a lot of up and down but by the third night I was sleeping like a baby at about a 20 degree angle into the...

:crying Tears, big soggy tears! Look what you did! :crying

It was a great time with phenomenal food (THANK YOU Hotlips and Kingsford, I need to bring a separate wallet just to put money in your jar!), great people, and plenty fine weather. No sunburn,...

I had my first weekend in the Hexon 1.6 at the PSH Fall Sprawl. Actually other than laying around it was my first hammock camping ever!

The material is just fantastic. I don't feel like I'm laying...

I have to side with the colleges on this one, sadly.

Landscaping is expensive. A few careless (either because they're rude or just ill informed, either way) dolts can cause thousands of dollars...

I concur and came here to post exactly that. Of course it's the only hang I've ever attended but I think the bar is pretty well set!

Thank you everyone for making me feel right at home. Great...

Leaving the house now. Store for bunplates, friend's house for firewood, then off to the races! Err...hang...ies!!!!!

Absolutely, sacks of plates and buns it is :)

Wednesday I will be grabbing some extra buns when I load up the tables and firewood. Is there anything else I should put on the list?

Isn't that the truth! I'll do my best to make sure the wood is kept dry :)

80% chance of rain the whole time? That can hurry right up and change, thank you very much! And actually just wanted to post it as a heads up...

Like slugbait said, I couldn't dream of taking away that wonderful, comforting, sleep-inducing rocking! It reminds me of being out on the water.

That's a major con, to me. Full disclosure I've...

This looks like it will really be quite the event! Next weekend should hurry up and get here ;)

I would do it in a heartbeat!

That is a once in a lifetime kind of experience right there. Especially if it goes wrong! :p

Eels that is terrible! I use PayPal as an extra layer of protection in online transactions, I would have thought they would do the same for the businesses. If that is not the case maybe I need to...

Re-congrats? LOL

Well good on you for keeping up on this. Patient AND generous! :)

I like the idea. I don't really know the community here on HF as I'm just a lil' newbie, but I know on Boardgamegeek (my other-other hobby!) the blog section kind of took off on its own after a few...

D: I just burned a pile probably four feet high of yard debris (mostly two inch or less saplings but some decent logs) that would have been perfect. Nooooooooo, un-fortuitous timing strikes again!
...

It just arrived today. I am super impressed!

There are so many qualities about down that I didn't really appreciate until I saw them first hand. The compression expansion of down once it has been...

That's really my biggest concern, how well will it allow me to cool off when it's in the 90s and 80%+ humidity. My cheaply hammock is a little small, but whatever nylon it is made from lets just...

Serious question time: Is your name referencing that fantastic SNL skit?

I bring a pipe and a quantity of tobacco with me every hike I go on. When I begin overnight camping (and longer) I expect that shall simple increase to 'a pipe and a larger quantity of tobacco'!

Phoenix 20 ordered. The sale and the decision to just suck it up and buy right, cry once made this a good choice. Well reviewed product and if I don't like it I can sell it for very little loss.

I...

Stubby thank you but JuneBug has me all set :) I really do appreciate the offer, though!

Congratulations Jlambert94! May it see you through many seasons :)

Thank you again for the chance and your generosity. Enjoy your birthday hike!

Welcome, come to the fall sprawl! It looks like a fun time ajand apparently is breaking records for turnout already :)

How breathable is this hexon? I really hope someone has one of these to show off at the psh fall sprawl, it looks like a wonder-fabric on paper.

That is great! I have a Tribe Provisions (eno knockoff/clone/whatever) hammock that I'm going to do this to. Thank you!

Shug made a believer out of me. I'm skipping a tent entirely and going right to the trees. I've always loved hammocks, his videos just proved I could take them out of the back yard and into the back...

More SC people, woohoo!!

Would it be possible to get this with a full length bug net?

I have exactly no gear, and no knowledge about it! This looks like a good kit though, and if some of these vets are vouching for the...

That sounds great, I would love to. I may hit you up after I take my boards in a few weeks!

That is superb, and very kind! I can't wait. Until then, it's more websites and videos to fill up my wishlist with stuff I barely understand :)

I will be there if it is at all humanly possible. I will be taking my nclex and hopefully starting a new job, but I'm already blocking the time off as prior engagement :)

Hello! I am just getting in to hanging and camping in general. I don't think I will have all the gear to really camp out by the end of September, but could I drive by to be nosy and ask questions and...

Please, enter me in the giveaway!

I am just starting out, and your freebies list looks like my Amazon wish list :lol:

Cheers, to your generosity!

Hi everyone. I am just looking to get into camping, and was at the point of deciding what kind of tent to get when I saw this crazy Shug fella on YouTube camping in a hammock. I didn't know you could...
