I don't care for the name either. Looks more like a "marsupium" to me. Keeps you dry, protects you from the elements, provides a nice warm comfortable pouch for you to get a peaceful nights rest, and...

Bug net is a must come spring time in KY. And get out and sleep in it or just lay in it and read a book, after watching vids and laying in it you'll be able to think of things that will help you. The...

No bears, snakes, or raccoons but last year my wife and I decided we were going to take a short 2 day hike. The 1st day went ok but when we woke she wasn't feeling good. With a bad cramp in her...

Thanks everyone for the help.

Thanks all of ya'll that have helped

Headed to the Wall of Jericho in early November for the first time and wanted to know if anyone had any must do's, must sees, or advice for this locale. Pictures I've seen so far look beautiful. Can...

Looking for a pad to go into my Amock hammock. I have been told that I need a pad with air chambers that run head to foot for rigidity. Seems to me that this would help being as without your feet...

Ok, I'm not that good at this electronics thing, or the whole internet thing (but I think this world wide web thing is here to stay) but I had a FB account that got deleted or I can't figure out how...

If I'm in mixed company I drop my sides on my tarp all the way down. Just let them hang. All they can see then is my calves and feet. Although I do have sexy legs I don't mind showing them off. Gawk...

Thank you rain man. You don't by any chance have a link to the online map that your looking at do you? The map that the lady sent me doesn't have any coords on it, and I haven't found anything on the...

I figure someone on here knows the coords to the 2 shelters at Mousetail Landing. If you have them would you please shoot them to me. Thanks

Still no news on a hang I guess?

All that bumper and no winch? Tisk Tisk Tisk. Looks good

I'm in for a hang in North Mississippi. Would like to see other people's contraptions that they have come up with. If you decide on the 13th of Nov I might even be able to bring some birthday cake....

To bad I'm not a planner, or very good with words and descriptions. Oh the plans some of ya'll have, I don't even have enough imagination to conceive it. Good luck to all ya'll awesome describers

I run my RL over my tarp. 2 reasons: 1.As mentioned above to keep rain water from running down the line and waking to the sound of drip drip drip on my TQ. Not good. I've never tried a drip line of...

I guess I'm going to the mall to build a bear now.

Funny you say that codiak, that's exactly what my mom said when I asked her for some tips on how to stuff down. Apparently they have the process down to a science. I didn't know they stuffed there...

To codiak I got your down eductor,very smart way of doing it as a siphon but the only part I don't think I understand is the kitchen drain part. Maybe I'm just not thinking clearly on this but I...

Very good ideas. All of them. The vacume thing is how I ended up cleaning it up. But I had to keep it sealed off for 3 days to let all the little floaters hit the ground. Maybe, just maybe the ol...

So far I've made 2 down UQ so I think I have enough room to have an opinion on the subject. The 1st project was transferring down from a king sized comforter to an UQ. What a pain and a mess that...

I might be posting this in the wrong place so forgive me if I am. I have a 15-91 singer thread injector and would like to rebuild the pot motor on the back of the machine. Does anyone know of some...

I'm surprised no one has asked yet, but what kind of job do you have that pays you to have that much free time on your hands? WOW, what a project. Looks great. I couldn't do it any faster with an...

I'm 5'9" and I'm trying to make a full length UQ. I would like to know what the so called perfect length and width should be. I'm kinda going about this the wrong way because I've already sewed 3...

Well I'm glad I looked down the post line to see if anybody had the same question as I do. Needless to say you and I must be on the same brain wave cause this is my same question too.

Ask Shug. Just saw a video where he ripped his faithful green bean hammock.

I started off with very little experience also. Make that a half year class in home mec back when they still taught home mec and I was in 4th grade. I think the only thing I remember out of the class...

Yeah I had figured it would be a lot of road walking but didn't know if there was am actual hiking trail that ran beside the road. I do know that there are some hiking trails although I've never been...

I'm interested in hiking a portion of the trace. Where is the best place to find out about rules and regulations on the Trace, as far as places to camp, fire, and detailed maps? Anybody out there...

I could probably make it any weekend from now to Oct. Excluding the first weekend of Oct. Might have to bring a bunch of scouts with me though. But I could definitely wiggle away from them for a...

If ya'll do do a hang in Tishomingo please post something. I love Tishomingo and not to far of a drive. Haven't met another hanger yet and would love to get some new ideas.

Yeah I just heard a couple of days ago about the water issue. Heard they were having problems with raw sewage dumping into the ocean. Said that you could go out on the beach just couldn't get in the...

I have found a king size down comforter that I am wanting to recycle the down out of to make my son and I a pair of UQ. I only have one problem so far with it. It has been sitting in my shed for the...

After 3 days of reading post from both threads and reading all the links I hate to hear that it was a disappointment. I kept thinking the whole way through that you would at least keep it for the...

Am I missing something? How much do you want for the cloud kilt and what size does it fit?

They have two different kinds of trot lines. BEWARE / one is a braid and the other is a twist. Haven't used it for hammock but have run millions of miles of trot lines. The twisted lines tend to...

Please do post pics cause I've got a goose down comforter that I've been eyeing for some time now. Just haven't told the ol lady I wanted to use it for an UQ. Been thinking about spilling some red...

[QUOTE=Nodust;1460861]Buccaneer State park near Biloxi. They have a water slide and wave-pool I believe.

Is this the one in Waveland?

Momma has got me talked in to going to the beach this year for vacation instead of our usual hill country camping. Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a nice park to camp in, on the beach...

Just make up some BIG elaborate story to go along with the marks and tell it at your next big group hang. Something like how it is jet wash from an alien space ship that time when you were up in...

almost makes me wish I was a ground dweller again

I'm very new to hammock but I am a looper. Been wanting some Dutch bling just hasn't been in the budget and being as how I just got through making two tarps, two hammocks, and two bug nets (one for...

I don't know if I'm doing it right or not, but my CRL does not have a V on either side of the tarp. I have a 12' tarp with a single line on it that is 20' long. On one end I have a carabiner that I...

I've read all the reviews on the Sipsey canyon hang and it sounds like a great place, being as how wife, kids, and I like to hike to waterfalls. Made mention to the wife about how is like for us to...

I personally like the idea of a kilt, although I probably won't ever wear one mainly cause I can't keep my legs crossed while sitting in a camp chair. They look cool to me though

Thanks everyone for the responses. We've camped at Camp Courier several times and petite Jeane a couple of times but was looking for something new. Some of the parents have asked for such a trip and...

I know someone on here can answer all my questions so I'm going to give it a go. I'm looking for a place in NW Mississippi to take a couple of cub scouts hiking. We are a newly formed group so these...

Has anyone tried spraying nylon with some of the Never Wet products? And was wondering how long it was good for.

I just got through making a hammock out of the same material 1.6oz hyperD and I can attest that it will hold a250 man and very soft. Like the feel

Was wondering if anyone knows of a very thin water proof rope and where to get it? I'm tired of my guy lines getting wet and holding water. Doesn't feel right wrapping up a tarp that's shedded water...
