If it causes lung cancer in california...dont go!
Do you really want to trust your only weather protection to be protected by a $1 piece of crap? I have hundreds of dollars tied up in gear. I want my rain protection.... to be well protected...so...
How much weight savings is there? Cant be much. My problem would be losing/leaving the amsteel and not having it when needed. I dont thru hike so those few ounces dont mean nearly as much to me,...
Ya see? I agree with ya'll on this forum, much more than the hammock camping on facebook. There are several on there that actually use it in their hammock. Not me! I was wondering if I was...
Yeah for me!
I used to use one in my tent during winter trips. Helps with a little warmth and with condensation. I saw on FB where this question was asked, but this is my go-to place for good info. Do any of...
Are these plastic?
I really like that...I just really suck at sewing.
Kam snaps? Ive never heard of them. I googled them and that looks like what I want. Do the plastic snaps stay snapped in high winds? Do you reinforce the fabric in anyway?
Anybody use snaps on their tarp doors? If so...what kind? Pics?
Thanks!
WAR EAGLE!! Just an fyi...there is a guy in Auburn that makes really good gear. He got in a little over his head and over extended himself on here. He has scaled back and not trying to do to much,...
Yep! Love mine!

These guys can probably help. Pretty good hiking and camping at Oak Mtn. Cheaha has great views, but you cant bike on the Pinhoti there.
Whats the weight? I have alight monarch, but...I havent bought any gear in a few weeks.
Always remember...never hang higher than you are willing to fall.
I had/have a grand trunk pillow with synthetic fill. It has a channel around the perimeter with cordage through it and a lock barrel. I took the the synthetic out and put down in it's place. To...
What is the weight?
If its windy...rainy...very cold...or very uneven, I will boil my water while I sit in my hammock. That was the reason I got a jetboil...I can hold it in my hand while I boil my water for coffee or...
You should definitely take advantage of the hang. You will get first hand info and check out different setups to help you decide what you want. Do go cheap...unless you have to. You will only...
Another vote for skinnin'.
I have a grand trunk pillow, that I took the fill out of and replaced with down. It has a channel and a cord running around the perimeter that can be cinched up to make it more firm if need be. I...
Other than under my hammock...I like it to sit/lay on when I take a break. Keeps the chiggers away...
The problem I had with a pad was, I'm a side sleeper. When I would roll to my side, my shoulder would be off the pad...and got cold. I tried making one with wings. It worked, but I dont like...
I took mine to 50...with 15 mph winds. Tarp low...doors closed. Stayed VERY comfortable. I think 45 would be my limit. I dont want to be cold when I sleep.
I always have one. Keeps my stuff from falling out in the middle of the night...
I made a reflectix pad. It worked ok, but it was HUGE! I want everything inside my pack, if possible. Thats one of the reasons I switched to hammocks.
Great find! I have the costco uq and tq, and this looks just like it. I need another set for my daughter. $4.00 more than costco, and I dont have to join and drive across town? A win for me! ...
YOU'RE DOOMED!!!
Agree! Took mine (tq & uq) out last week. Very comfortable in the low 50s, with VERY strong winds. Had my tarp up and doors closed. Never once got chilled...until I got out.

Sometimes you need doors...sometimes you dont. Cant use em if ya dont have em, but you can, not use them by tying them back. Ill never have one without doors again.
Welcome to HF. You have come to the WRONG place! :scared: These people will have you spending all of you time and money on hammock stuff. Too much info on here! :scared: Delete this page! Forget...
Im a pretty warm sleeper when it comes to down.
I have a really warm setup for cold weather. I was just trying to get an idea on the single layer, seam ripped quilts.
Yeah...I just looked at the pics and got the whole story...I think. I didnt read it...
I know it subjective, but what are some real world temps for the costco tq and uq? Ive made both, but I was just curious how low people have actually gone...comfortably.
Plus 1 on this one. I have never sewn anything like this before, and it turned out really good. Not good enough to sell but it works great. Very easy to do. Once you rip the seams, this thing...

Whats darting?:confused:
Man...that looks dry!
You have to realize...OUR cold is definitely not YOUR cold. Our blood runs thin, with no anti-freeze either. If its near zero here...we stay inside!
Hate to hear this! I love the gear I got from MWG. Good luck Charlie, I look forward to your return. Oh...is Turnipseed still on in Dec?
I (we) have a total of 4 yukons and 2 of their flys. 3 netted and one not. Work great for my girls and I use the non-netted for naps and lounging almost daily. Get rid of the huge caribiners and...
