Did you make it? Did you make it back?
I have a Spot 2, and it works well for my purposes: tracking my progress on a website for my family to follow, and for the unthinkable. My hammocking is in support of multi-day motorcycle trips both...
I don't see how 200 lbs hanging from a hammock between two trees can put more than 200 lbs of force on the trees, total. Now, the vector of the forces changes, i.e., it's not straight down, but has...

Upon the advise of others, I picked up a used WBBB 1.7 dbl instead...

I'll take the 40-degree Phoenix underquilt and the Sea to Summit set... send me your PayPal address.
Thanks!
I'll take the other... please send PayPal info... thanks!
Hello from Seattle... and a former Anderson resident who went to McCants and T L Hanna. I can think of a few beautiful creek bottoms in the Piedmont that would be fantastic to hang a hammock in.
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.
I've ruminated on my first experience, and after doing considerable reading here I believe I understand why things didn't work out as expected. The two trees...
