    These are great! Thank you! This is the best set of images I've seen for these quilts. I've heard that it only has a primary suspension, but it's nice to actually see it. Do you mind if I share...

    LOL. No, that's the logo from my photography website: http://www.wandertravelphotography.com. I'm not an "influencer", but I appreciate your concern for such issues. I just need some warmer quilts...

    Where are the Trailheadz reports?

    Guys, those Trailheadz Ethereal quilts look insane, but I haven't seen any reviews or reports. What's your experience?

    That makes sense. I feel like I'm not making full use of the features, but maybe they're not that useful features. Do you have a feel for how much it increases the temperature when cold? I haven't...

    Hello all! I recently upped my hammock game and purchased a sweet Trail Lair with the wind shield option. I understand that the wind shield was moved underneath the bugnet in the last year or so. ...

    Good to hear you're enjoying the new Freebird. You definitely helped change the way I was thinking about this, and I appreciate it. I really love the netless hammock and the bottom-entry bugnet. I...

    Yep, that's the realization that I'm coming to. The Asym is just so freaking light (0.54lbs vs. 1.32lbs for the Winter Haven), so I'd love to find some black magic to make it effective against the...

    Interesting. I hadn't heard of this company. Thanks for the info! 9.3oz for 72" long wide option. Not bad.

    Yeah, right now I just have an REI Magma 30 quilt, which I love, but it's overkill right now. It mostly just stays beside me, occasionally pulling it over my shoulders. I'm getting ready to do the...

    Ooh, interesting. How the heck do they make it that light with all that extra fabric? Supposedly a 50F Yeti with 950 down is 6.24oz (vs 8.4oz for the LLG Operator). I guess it is 4" shorter and 5"...

    Lightest summer topquilt

    I've seen a few posts on this, but they're getting pretty old. What's the lightest top quilt option for summer when lows never go below 50F? Is it the Loco Libre Operator? I don't sew, nor do I have...

    Hilarious! Looks like you got to it just before me. I see a 1.2MTN Freebird just in front of me in the queue. If you hate it or want to let me borrow it, let me know. :)

    I got some really good feedback here that made me think of another route.

    I just went ahead and ordered a Dream Freebird (basic hammock) in 1.7oz MTN and a bottom-entry bugnet. I figure that's...

    I dig your outlook, friend! ...but being wet and cold sucks. I think I'd rather just be cold. :)

    So, maybe I'm not quite following you though. Do you just use the sock when you're at home...

    That's really good advice that I hadn't considered. Thanks for that. I'm still thinking the asym would be mainly for shade, less for rain protection.

    For the asym, I was thinking to go a little longer to add a little protection. I figured I'd probably just use this when I KNOW the weather will be nice, probably just for overnighters or general...

    Have any pics of the vent setup? I'm having a hard time good photos of that hammock. How do they compare to the larger vent option on the Dream Sparrow?
  27. Topcovers/Socks: When, why, and how do you use them?

    I'm curious about everyone's experience with topcovers/socks.



    How often do you use yours?
    Do you use them for wind, cold, both?
    How cold do you use them, and what are your experiences...

    Thanks for sharing Randy's response. That helps. I'm interested to know if you've seen a good thorough discussion of topcovers (outside of Shug's video). I might try to start a thread on that...

    Oh, man, I can already see where this is going. $40 for a Dream FreeBird! I can just buy a bunch to test out the widths, fabrics, lay, etc. Yeah, this is going to become a problem. :D

  32. First Hammock Setup... Whaddya Think? (and other questions)
