since weight isn't an issue grab a wool blanket (or 2), great under insulation but very heavy......cheap too (army navy surplus)
I did the same thing and initially purchased nearly the same set-up except I have a JRB TQ....I wholeheartedly agree with the buy once cry once BUT......I caught the bug and have continued to...

Received today!!!!
Backer 92, 1.6 wide, complete set. 2 peak shelves, 1 bottle starage, 1 storage pocket.......shipped today!
I am considering a road trip out there the first week of April.....also would like any ideas on areas for dispersed car camping (I have a 4Runner so some moderate wheeling/exploring would be a plus)....
I had Kat custom make them for my 13 ft winter dream and they're awesome!!! send her an email (Mountain Goat)
Have you tried an 11 ft hammock? the Kammock is pretty wide but fairly short..I'm a touch under 6'4 and could not get comfortable in my Roo....Some people stomach or side sleep in a Bridge Hammock. ...
I've also gone away from CRL and use Dutch Stingerz on each end(super easy to set up, easy to adjust and easy to swap out)......but when I used CRL I went over especially with external pole mod as it...
Good ?, I've used a bear vault on some of my trips so 13 oz is a big savings for me compared to the vault. I figured the critter proof was a little more versatile if you're in mouse country but that...
maybe a chair zero??? go pro???
waiting for the new Ursack Allmitey to get added to REI site!!! Bear AND Critter proof
Now THAT made me laugh out loud as I'm eating dinner by myself at a restaurant, getting some odd looks,,,,Thanks!!!!!
not even close,,,this was a worry when I use my superfly (had to be extra careful)...with the ugq 13 I could probably pull my truck in there with me! :)
Loooove the UGQ winter dream 13 for my Bridge
I'm just a notch under 6'4 and @215-220 depending on what I ate that week :). I have plenty of room and am extremely comfortable....good luck
+1 ^^^^^^CF is great (I hear) but a little bulkier. My silpoly packs down great in the mountaingoat skins
Backer 92 also anxiously awaiting notice
I have an XLC DL 1.7 and really like it....I love my Ridgerunner(I know that wasn't 1 of your options but man is it comfortable)....I have looked at DH and have no doubt they are great as well. ...
Really hoping to make this....it would be my first group hang. how many campers can the site accomodate?
Same issue w/ my HG incubator 20 long.....Love HGs workmanship and customer service etc,,,,but have been strongly considering selling it and buying a Wooki
There are a lot of factors to consider including your height, weight, etc... check this out as an affordable starter that is also excellent quality and one that you can definitely expand...if you add...
Just echoing everyone else's thoughts....I love my ridgerunner and the lynx under quilt is perfect, easy and toasty. my optimal tree distance is @18 feet and I haven't had an issue with that. the...
can't wait to add my early bird to this thread!!!
probably a dumb question but how will my wide hunter green match up with the woodland camo top cover? good combo or will they clash?
Dang it, this is like watching the final hours of an eBay auction
Agree!! Just added 2 peak and 2 storage for this very reason...of course, I'm wanting the wide sooooo
spring for the superbly! great tarp and doors come in handy in the rain as well as 4 a little extra privacy
Another welcome from Indiana!!!!
you are the man!!!! come on wide.....any sneak peak on what colors the wide will or may come in? just want to pre-plan so I can get my early bird order in asap
i don't live close but i come down for smoky hiking/hangs 1 or 2 times per year, love it down there!!!
Are the smoky mountains out?
Also just for point of reference, trees were right at 18 feet apart in both posts
According to Paul the 13' silpoly is 21.9 oz (I have this one). The 13' M93 is 17.4oz. I believe the double pole mod w/ shock cord and storage sack is 16.5oz. I did the side pull outs in case I...
Got out again and remembered the RR this time!!

143869143869Nothing exciting as far as a trip, just a set-up, add Dutch bling, take a nap and head home. Meant to bring my Ridgerunner (reason for this tarp) but grabbed my XLC...oh well, just a...
Congrats, come on wide!!!
Thanks a lot, I'm just over 6'3 and was curious if the extra width would be beneficial or necessary
How wide is your 11.5 foot hammock?
Welcome, I do not have a Dream Hammock (yet) but hear nothing but "Raven",,,,,I mean rave reviews about papa smurf and DH. As you will see, there will be as many different opinions as there are...

First photo attempt....great thread!!
I will cross my fingers on the stretch goal and upgrade if it unlocks>>>>thanks again and congrats. May be perfect timing for my smoky mountain trip in May!!!!
Ok, slightly worried but excited....Backer #92...I'm 6'3 220 lbs and would order a wide if available but will the 58" be a "stretch" for my height or will it be wide enough????
At this point Dutch is just showing off! wow says Backer #92!!!!!
I wonder if you go to manage pledge cancel your first order and then re-order the second one if that would work
YW but not sure what good deed I did to deserve the thanks
Another side benefit...I'm guessing the for sale market on here may have some good options for people wanting used gear as everyone who backed Dutch gets in trouble from their financial...
