They're both 20 degree sierra snivlers with the snaps, but not sure when I bought them.
Thanks for the great suggestion.

Good to hear. Did you have much problem with the toppest of the top quilts getting out of place during the night?
I have a camping trip the first weekend of October and want to be ready if temps drop lower than my current gear is designed for. I have two 20 degree bottom quilts I can stack, but not sure if that...
Good to know, thank! Any issues with using head and foot end tie outs? I like having my pulled out quite a bit.
Very interested in this. Looks like the ends still require cinching up, is that right? Was hoping that wouldn't be the case, since that's the fiddly part where cold air seeps in.
Thanks for the reply. I ended up with 3" screws.
Anyone here use the dutchware wall anchors? If so, what size screws did you use?
I buy a Gatorade and then use that bottle . It's so nice taking care of that function without getting out of bed.
Looking for ways to boost my existing 20 degree underquilt and was wondering if anyone has tried slipping a down puffy blanket like the costo one between the UQ and hammock and if you have, how well...
I may be getting out for a one SHT nighter this weekend, and I'm curious how bad insects are this time of year. I expect pretty bad, but I thought I'd check in here to get a feel for what they're...
I have the two piece warbonnet tarp skins and would like to trade for a one piece version (11' tarp compatible).

Some canoers (sp?) and a couple hikers spent a few colorful and chilly nights in Minnesota"s north country trail. Grouse and deer were hunted (none taken), crappies were fished and eaten, and a good...

I just got mine and love them. Great product!
Thanks for the info!
My annual father daughter canoe trip got cancelled because one of the daughters came down with the 'rona (she's doing well) so my plans need to change. I'm thinking of a one or two night trip with...
Looking for a gently used ULA Circuit. Medium torso/medium hip belt.
Thanks, that worked.
Not sure why it's rotated as the original is right side up. I rotated the saved image anyways and re-uploaded it, but that only made the image look sideways, but tipped the other direction. I tried...
Saw this on a lunch time walk. Look about 25' to 30' feet in the air. You may need to zoom in, but notice the step ladder and igloo cooler. I promise this isn't a photoshop! [edit to add I'm not...
I have a warbonnet two piece and I don't like how it pulls apart in the middle. I'd go for the one piece.
I added shock cord tensioners to my ties outs. Best of both worlds?

I'm a side sleeper in bed but sleep in my chameleon at a 45 degree angle, so sort of on my side but not all the way. I change positions much less in the hammock than my bed.
Welcome, you've found the right place to get sorted on everything hammock camping.
I use a mountainfly with my chameleon, but have only had light rains so far.
Welcome! My story is very similar to yours, although I wasn't a hard core camper. Last years trip messed my back up pretty bad, and it was months before I got it sorted out and hammock camping has...
Beautiful pics! Looks like a great time.
Ridgeline quilt hooks can help, at least the do for me. As others mentioned earlier, there are way to diy the same basic idea.

Everyone that hears about the trip thinks it's a bizarre/crazy thing to do. Clearly I don't agree :)
Did you get that orange and black one (I think that was the color)? It was the only 20 degree premium I saw with no irregularities. I went back in later to buy it and it was gone :)
If your thinking of the jrb 20 degree top quilt, I have a like new one I may be selling. Also, HG has a 15% off on in stock quilts, but most of the ones left are b stock.
Thank you! Now I need to figure out if my sewing machine can handle the job.
I have some spider straps that I may want to convert into huggers (those turte tie suspensions are calling my name). What type of thread do I need to use to use when sewing a loop on the straight end...
Wow, some real beautiful shots on this page!
Small world indeed!
"I hang over the dying fire", love it! That would be a great song/album name...
Looks great! How rainy was it on Saturday?
I just got back from my first backpacking trip, which was a solo trip on the Superior Hiking Trail. My plan was to start at the Oberg Mt trailhead on Saturday and hike to west rollins creek, but it...
Thanks for the video Shug. I've been trying to pace myself through your youtube library, but I'm nearly at the end so it's a welcome news you've posted again!
Welcome to the forums, but be warned. This pastime will end up costing a fair amount of money :)
I caught this man's video on youtube where he made a winter sock cover (and an added, no sew zipper) out of a frost blanket made for plants. Cool idea!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlb9d4r31yw
Where can you get those printed?
I noticed a handful of these, for lack of a better word, "snags" in my bugnet this weekend and I'm not sure how they happened. I haven't snagged the zipper in it and can imagine anything else that...
I thought so too, but the set I recently purchased from dutch didn't have them.
We have a long tradition of the family getting together in a multi-bedroom lodge. Let's just say the "relative" humidity is high and that I'll be sleeping out back in my hammock :)
Well written, thanks for sharing!
I purchased a 20 degree cedar ridge UP underquilt (my first) a few weeks back from dutchware and have used it a total of four night so far with my chameleon. Low temps ranged from the upper 60's to...
I'm a side sleeper in bed but find I sleep best in my chameleon with a hybrid side/back position. I lay at at a roughly 45 degree angle between side and back, with a HG premium pillow in for neck...
