    Question Warbonnet Eldorado

    Straight out of the annals of camping hammock history comes the Warbonnet Eldorado, an apparent precursor to the Blackbird...





    I had never heard of this until today... A hypertextual primer follows...

    Thanks for the memories. I think I got to lie in one briefly at the last Oregon summer hang, a couple of years ago.

    Me too! We are blessed to be able to see brands evolve and get to communicate with so many talented individuals (and now companies). It's like having a factory tour at your fingertips.

    "History of" articles could be sweet... then Hammocking would really be "academic."
    The want of wandering, and a welcomed whimsy.

    Very cool. Thanks for the post, KitsapCowboy.
