The Kickstarter was fully funded in less than 10 minutes. Having seen this stand in person and in action. This is a must look at. @ hammocks sleeping side by side under the same tarp. Bridge hammock...
@Peeeeetey, the lightest hammock with an integrated budget on the market, that actually campable. Is the TrailHeadz PoltergeistSUL. Mine weighs in about 8oz. Lighter than your cellphone. ...
I would love to join, but gonna be house training my new hiking partner these next couple months. overnights will probably be restricted to the backyard.
Well, It so happens that i'm a bit of a diva and like standing out. But if the camo route helps... I've got matching quilts and the Banyan coming will match as well... lol
Having had both. I honestly think the Bonded makes for a stronger ridgeline. It adds enough "structure" that I had not anticipated this benefit. I expected the added waterproofness, so that was never...
I must admit it brings me great joy watching you fiddle and fumble through your setup whilst I joyously recline in my rig.
Yup... there may be shenanigans...
PG The signs are pointing to me being able to make it.
Dolly Sods....
This trip has been on my "list" for a while now. I'm not sure why I've not visited it before this past weekend. I think part of it was finding the right hiking companions to...
As an owner of both the Banshee and the Poltergeist. i'm 6' 200# and the Banshee is hands down the most comfortable hammock I own in the UL area. The Poltergeist is new... as of last thursday but...
This is gonna be a fun hang.... I'll get to see so many of my favorite people!!!!

Yea PG it's on the Gear-Report youtube page that I set you up with on our last trip.
Interesting to say...
Recently there has been a lot of talk on the book of faces about quilts. Numerous myths, uneducated suggestions, and such. So I asked a couple of friends to join me on my weekly podcast to clear the...
I'm thinking about making the Journey from the Carolinas. I'd prolly hitch a ride with Cajun. Any tips?
Hello, I'm starting to plan a backpacking trip up to the SHT for this summer. Dates TBD. Section TBD. I do know I'd like about 5 days to hike. DAily mileage less than 10. I want to see the trail and...
I know TrailHeadz HAmmocks ususally host a group hang on their property at the end of January. But it seems that Covid has made other plans and they've had to cancel. That being said having attended...
PG... I do believe I'm gonna be able to make this trek. I've got some new gear that needs to be out in the woods for some old testing. Including the TrailHeadz Etherreal 20° UL quiltset. Which weighs...
I was actually on site when the Down Supplier hand delivered the 7' long bag of down. Stating it was 1K fp. Ethically sourced and Hyperdry. While i know good and well that 100FP down is not gonna be...
It's a good hang to just chill out by the fire and unwind.
As an early adopter of the Wraith. I found it quite comfortable. Dropping the weight was an amazing feeling while on the trail. At 6' 205. I had no problems using it over 10+ nights. I just could...
Jake we'd be honored to have you come out and join us. Even if it's for a lookysee. These group hangs are the absolute best way to learn about hammocks, rigs, and everything included.
Lock up your momma's lock up your daughters.... It's Gorge time.
Welp I guess i know where i'll be that weekend.... GorgeBound!
It's that time of year again. The Tarheel State Hangers annual Gathering. Due to COVID and Morrow Mountain doing some remodeling to their Group Camping sites. We're moving it to Falls Lake state...
Welcome from Statesville.
I do believe I'll be lugging my Tenstil connect out for the weekend depending on the weather. Cause that beast is a bit of a pain to pack up in the rain....
I've not decided yet but I might just lug the spaceship (Tentsile Connect) out for the weekend. It's not gotten any use recently and it's only a mile or so.
It's on the calendar. I look forward to it guys!
It looks like i'm going to be a late addition. The better half is kicking me out of the house for the weekend... I'll have a stand as suggested. Let me know if anything is needed but not spoken for....
I might have a line on a 11' Wraith. Black monolite Mobo Peaks lime green stitching. 343g.
Thanks Chris! this was a really fun thing to do.
Way to Go brother... I'm glad to see this.
you and me both
There's a couple vendors that are working with the Monolite fabric. I've toured the Trailheadz Shop and was beyond impressed with the staffs' attention to detail. From John running the shop on down...
I own the "non" UL Version. Miine weighs in at and astoundingly heavy 12.1oz. 11'
Will they work with Dutch Wire? Or is that diameter too small?
Ya'll be safe... Us in the western part of the state are gonna have to batten down the hatches.... It's a good section to hike, and you should have plenty of water flowing in the creeks.
And It was accepted.... Welcome to the Community
It's a good section to hike. I hiked it back in October with the 3 Rivers Land trust annual thru hike. a good section it is. It has also been completed and blazed past the northern trailhead to the...
Ok, I'm running a double internal pole mode on my CRO Winter refuge tarp. It's 2 10' poles connected to Beatie D rings on the tieout corners. Here's where I need some insight from the collective....
Yea It was a good trip for sure. Heartthrob is usually right around February 14th. Since that falls on a Friday, this year it may be the weekend before or the weekend after. Also, I goto Vegas at...
Thanks for coming out Taz....
At 6' 200# i've found i'm happiest in my wide Chameleon with the Symetrical bugnet. I used my asym winter cover a couple weeks ago and realized just how much I missed the Sym bugnet. I don't know if...
Thanks Pappy Your smile and wit was missed around the campfire... It was all that much harder to keep Moose in line....
Thank you Grappler. Your presence made mad my heart happy and the campfire all that much warmer.
