    Probably the same one I've took there the last two winter hangs & used nightly at home or elsewhere. It's a home made gathered end type w/ a spreader bar, made from $1 bin camo.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    I'll be in my gathered end homemade hammock. Keeping it simple. What is "HomeFry"?

    Hammock is the easy question.....insulation seems like the more important question! Still weighing my keep warm options.

    If we make it to the hang, we'll be in a pair of warbonnet blackbirds, with an OES 12x10, a DIY 12x10 asymmetrical winter tarp, probably a pair of DIY winter UQ's, and who knows what else. Looks like a lot of fun - hope there is some snow

    I'm so spoiled by my Blackbird. I'll bring it and hopefully will have a BBO to go over it by then to increase warmth in it.

    At this point, it depends

    I voted for my WBB because It's what I have and I know I'm comfy in it. Fin has let me borrow his JRB BMBH. Hopefully, it will get here before thanksgiving holidays and I'll try it out while I'm camping that weekend. If I like it more than my WBB, I'll probably sell my BB and go with a bridge hammock. The DIY options for a bridge seem to be far easier than for an end gathered hammock.
