    Is the tag on the foot end or head end?

    Folks,

    Which end is the Hammock Gear tag on the Econ Incubator 20, foot end or head end? I broke my plastic carabiners, and I used what I had at the time, 2 red carabiners. Now I cannot remember which end is which.

    Thanks in advance.

    You can usually see the change in thickness. It’s thinner at foot end. Tapered design. TAG IS ON HEAD END.
    Get lost in the woods and find yourself again. A vacation,to me, is working with your hands and surviving because of the fruits of your labor. In the business world I teach;in the natural world I learn.

    You might want to go to Medoc Mountain Hang this January. Isn’t that near you?

    Just wanted to confirm what everyone else has said Tag is towards the head end of the quilt on your left hand side as you're laying in the hammock. Feel free to shoot me an email as well if you have any additional questions!

    When you add these back, you may consider adding a bead or something else to the suspension to easily Id the head. I've been fond of a small peice of red heat shrink. Example is of my stuff sack drawcord but you get the idea.

    I always replace the black caribineers that come with the quilt with colored ones. All my quilts have red for the "head" end and black for the "feet". Easy to remember: red head, black feet. I also use 2 different colors of amsteel for my whoopies.

    I do that with the hammock suspension (but orange). Haven't gotten around to finding the right color sbiner for the uq.
