Had a great time on the Chattooga River this past weekend with my brother and friends. It's been far too long since I've been out for a trip. I wish I had more time to hike and make trip report...
Thanks much.
Love New England. Miss it. Thanks for watching!
Nice editing and shots. Looked like a fun trip. The dog cam was great. And you even got a trout. Nice.
Love that area. Thanks for sharing your report. Seems like you learned a lot. That moose would have scared the crap out of me too. I hate to plug my videos, but I do have a few white mountain trip...
It does have that effect. Thanks!
thank ya.
You're welcome! cheers.
Thanks man I appreciate it.
Thanks! Enjoy your trip.
my previous forum picture was one of clint eastwood. I've just been busy lately and not as active on the forum. The vidoe makes me wish...
It was a fun stroll down memory lane for me as well. I'm too far away from those big mountains now and I miss it! Thanks for watching and hope to see another backpacking adventure soon.
Makes me want to get out too! thanks.
I appreciate the kind words. Take care.
The whites are awesome. Thanks.
Thanks for checking it out.
. Thanks
This is a collection and re-edit of my hammock backpacking trips. Includes a small amount of new footage due to editing and some new comments. Take care everyone!

You got some really cool light captured and I liked the quick cuts. Nice work!
No problems with by burrow 20, but I have never used it on the ground. Although I did use it on my bed last night - gotta keep that power bill down! I always think its best to contact the vendor...
They both pack very small. Together they probably pack down to the size of a normal down sleeping bag. I get both of mine into my ohm 2.0 easily and also into the GG Kumo. Just depends on your other...
I did a presi traverse last summer and experienced very high winds, but with near perfect temps. I did a video on it. Can't imagine being up there with heavy rain. Good thing you had the hut there...
Great seeing these vids. Makes me miss getting out. I'm back south and will need to drive to the gorge for a trip one of these days. thanks for sharing.
Good stuff! Brings back memories for me as well. Thanks for sharing.
FOUND. Got a good deal on BPL. Thanks again timd.
Thanks timd. I think I found it.
Excellent stuff Tall Paul. Thanks for sharing.
Since I recently unloaded a pack, I am thinking of getting a smaller pack for my ultralight summer trips. Anyone interested in selling a GG Kumo? I'd need the size Large.
Glad it was helpful to you. This is the most dialed in list at the moment. I'll happily post my other lists once I get those dialed in. Thanks.
Sold to Gustavus. Payment Received. Thank you.
Yes, and there is a section inside the pack where the bladder is to be inserted.
sorry, if it doesnt sell I will keep it as a backup pack.
For sale is a Gregory Z55 pack Size Large (torso 20"-21.5"). The hipbelt is adjustible to small, medium, large settings. I bought this new in 2013. Here is a link selling them on Campmor new:...
I recently bought it off Amazon for around $10. I had previously done a lot of research on going "ultralight," so some of his suggestions were not new. Overall, I think its a nice, quick read. If you...

I've attached my sub 10 pound gear list if it helps. I like my hammock gear 20 degree quilt, because...
Yeah, just placed inside the compactor bag. I roll it up and make sure the whoopie slings are on in the inside (so it's not lumpy against my back). I didnt use any stuff sacks on that trip, and I...
Great pics man! Looks like fun! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, it really was as fun as it looked.
Thanks TallPaul for checking it out
Getting the good camera shots is easier on a solo trip since I'm on my own schedule. Thanks for checking it...
Thanks for your views my friend.
Thanks. That area is an instant favorite of mine. I'm not used to the mountain ponds, so that was a real treat. The ladders were tough, but I think more...
I got out for two nights on a solo "ultralight" trip. My baseweight was 9.93 pounds. My fly rod came with me, and I landed quite a few brook trout. Fly gear (14oz) not included in baseweight since I...
That's some good wholesome fun right there. Thanks for sharing.
My hiking buddy Scott just got back from a two week mountaineering course in Washington State with the America Alpine Institute. One night after a long climb they set up a bivvy on a rock ledge. Some...
. Good points. Using the trekking poles as spreader bars would definitely knock off some weight. If it's more comfortable than my gathered end and I can just add a handful of ounces, it probably...
I want to try the ridgerunner, but man that's heavy for a hammock. If only there was some way to rent one...

Got my order in and just received my items today. Just some small things for now, but I will be back for more, that's for sure. I've got my eye on some larger items. Thanks again. Very fast shipment.
Welcome from Boston. The Whites are my favorite place to hike. I can't speak to your specific questions, but on tarps, I would avoid a medium sized tarp such as the mambajamba. A lot of folks may...
I've loaned a lot of gear to my younger brother and he ends up taking it over. I usually don't fight his take over and use it as an excuse to upgrade my gear. win win.
As far as my ounce counting goes, I would only lose around 6 ounces by going to a 40 degree quilt. The other option is to keep the 20 degree quilt and just get a lighter down jacket, which currently...
I mentioned that trade off in an earlier comment. I wouldnt bring more clothes, just use them for a more useful purpose. My thought is that I will want to bring a down or synthetic jacket no matter...
good comments billybob. I am starting to think extra clothes will increase warmth to a certain point but we shall see.
I believe your testing, it just doesnt make sense that extra clothes would make you feel colder on the bottom but not the top, because obvously the topquilt insulates just like the underquilt. I...
I've done a little google searching and it seems folks are split on the issue. My hypothesis with testing needed:
1. extra space in the quilt is just more air that needs to be heated and is not...
As mentioned earlier, maybe it does come down to the blood flow. I just don't see how adding a down jacket on top of a baselayer doesnt add warmth. I'll need to test more. I have added jackets in my...
