I am definitely not scared of the rain, but still not sure. Transportation and scheduling woes. I am a solid maybe at the moment. 🫤

I know it reopened, but don’t know the extent of the affected area.

Thanks! I’ll be cozy and dry, but may have to work on setup timing [emoji102]

That’s great! That spot is great for a hammock crowd [emoji846] Gainesville was a soggy mess, I am glad it was less so down there.
It was nice to meet you too.

Holy buckets… that’s a lot of people! I know the advice was to get there Thursday to find a spot close to the action, but with that many people it may be more my thing to find a spot far enough from...
This is spot on. On my last trip out, it rained for for almost 36 hours with minimal breaks. I was using a stock Hennessy expedition tarp, so the wet things just stayed wet and all I could do was...
Better late than never! It took me a few ground sleeping years too.

[emoji15] Yeah, that sounds like more than I want to sign up for at the moment.

I know y’all have all been wondering how it went [emoji102][emoji51]
After watching the temps in the lead up range from 20-80, what we got was two days of rain in the 50’s and 60’s and then one...
Head left and feet right no matter which side the zipper is on.
Ok - Coming down to the wire, but I have played around with some things ( as best I can here in the land of mostly warm - we got a good few nights of 40's anyway and i got by with only a costco throw...
Wowza, I am going to have to keep my eyes peeled in Play it Again Sports!
Gainesville hanger here- mostly in a Frankenkit, (mishmash) but starting to play with a Hennessy that I am determined to...
Oh, no… that would be way too light alone! I was more asking about using that one while damp because it’s the only one I have seen in the wild and it looked like it kept a little water (after 9 solid...
I am going to try to make it to this this year. Funny thing Pheonix6579 …
I was in Pisgah National Forest camping last summer, when the camper across the way came to say hello. He had spotted our...
Thanks! Foam pads are a thing I have little experience with, but my friend has this one:

I feel like it got wet last trip and stored...
Oh, phew! I was a bit unnerved at the temp already hitting the 20’s. Good to know it’s a fluke (though good reminder that those can happen anytime).
This trip was specifically picked as a first...
I am SUPER excited about this trail (and to get out of the sandy swamp). Nice to hear it’s a good one!
That foam pad looks like a good thing to have on hand. Do those absorb water? (Need to be...
I have a set of sierra madre inferno 30 degree quilts. They’ve been down to 35 (ish?) without issue and without adding padded bits.

Thanks all - I know that asking "will this gear be enough?" is super subjective, that is why I was trying to see if there was a (semi constant? or at least an established range) assist value to a...
Thanks! With the underquilt boosted by a pad, do you think I would still need another layer on a 30 degree topquilt? or will the extra bottom warmth likely be enough?
Really trying to find that...
I also considered hanging my frog togg poncho over the ridgeline for a faux winter cover... just for a few degrees more.
Hi all,
I am a long time lurker, but infrequent poster. I have combed the forum ( and videos and reddit, and... ), but don't feel like I can really find the specifics I am looking for.
How much...
Thanks! I will give it a go tomorrow :)
I am making continuous tarp ridge lines and was reading that you needed to make sure to have enough unspliced line on the loops to make a good grabby prussik. About how long for the starting cord and...
Thanks, I bet it does! I am headed out for my first hanging trip in less than a week and really hoping it will be cool enough to stand being in my hammock! Under insulation..... Pah >.< ..... (Until...
I have! I think I was hearing whooooooboy in my sleep for a few days there :D
I am a newbie hanger in training. I got an eno to toss up on car camping trips and it got me wanting to move toward backpacking. Then I fell down the rabbit hole reading (ALL THE THINGS!) about the...
