Getting my pile together and soaking up info here and abroad.

My new Blackbird XLC should be here by Monday and will be all set.

Hopefully can meet up with some locals and share some time in the woods.

Thanks for your time, Steve

Profly is proficient, but small. It will teach you efficient set up for weather protection but give you a bit of wiggle room for lay style. It has better coverage that an asym tarp where you are limited to what lay gives you the best protection.
