    Thumbs up HG Winter Palace for WBRR

    I just want to say thanks and wow about the winter palace, modified for a ridgerunner, that I just received from HG. First, it shipped quicker than the advertised lead time. Second, it came in under the 11-12oz estimated weight at 10.3 ounces!

    That's 14.3 ounces lighter than my JRB 11x10 tarp!

    Thanks for the great service HG! I can't wait to use it!

    I'd love to see some pics as soon as you can get them up. I'm interested in the same tarp for the same hammock

    I'm moving Monday and Tuesday so have a lot of work to do this weekend, but weather depending, I may set everything up just to check it out and get my tie outs set up. I'll snap pics if it pans out.

    I'd love to see it too. I find myself using my RR much more than any of my gathered end hammocks these days. The cloudburst is fantastic with it, but I would not mind going lighter for backpacking.

    Just curious - the Winter Palace is listed on their website at 8.6 ounces. Why would a Winter Palace for a Ridgerunner weigh 10.3 ounces? Just curious.

    I think they also widen it a bit to clear the spreader bars.
