    SLD Trail Lair for Warbonnet Eldorado/XLC

    Long story short, I had both. Sold the Eldorado. I love the TL for its comfort. I love(d) the Eldorado for the bugnet-off-the-face design. I didn't like (as much) the bugnet on the Eldorado on the whole because it felt a little confining compared to the SLD, but that was really only cos I had a luxuriously spacious TL to compare.

    In the end, both were comfortable, but the bugnet far away from my face might be my preferred setup all other things equal. Maybe, just maybe, I chose to keep the wrong hammock. I'd like to try a lightweight double layer Eldorado.

    My SLD Trail Lair is 11" long, 63" wide. It has a peak shelf built in which is awesome. It cost me $189 done. I can get you all the specs, but yeah maybe there's money exchanged. Maybe not. I'm flexible. You might be as well

    Interested? Let me know.

    Thanks

    I have a single layer Eldorado that is some sort of grayish color with the cinch buckle suspension that maybe I would be interested in trading. What are the rest of your specs on the trail lair?

    Some sort of Grayish is probably fine, but do you know the weight of the fabric and/or whether its the dreamtek? Looks like a single layer with buckles is $145.

    Here's specs on the Trail Lair from Jareds site. I'd keep the ridgeline gear pouch. The peak loft is not removable and works great. Color is orange. No suspension other than continuous loops.


    Color/Fabric: Hexon Wide 1.6 - (U-Pick Color, + 1 week to ship)
    Length: 11' Layers::
    Single Netting Material:: No-See-Um (.9 oz)
    Zipper Size:: #5 YKK Zipper Fixed Ridgeline:: Yes, Fixed (Amsteel)
    Suspension Type:: None (I will use my own)
    Add On Tie Outs:: Yes, Knees & Shoulders (Grosgrain Loops) Continuous Loops::
    Removable Peak Shelf:: Yes, Head End Only
    Removable Wind Shield:: No
    Ridgeline Gear Pouch:: Yes
    Stuff Sack Options: Standard Stuff Sack
    Under Quilt Hooks:: No

    Is item still available? If so you may want to bump it at least once every week. Items that are inactive are subject to being removed from the Market Place area, it allows members to know you are still interested and it will keep the moderators from "pinging" you! (Bumps mean to respond in the post)

    If you are finished with your thread, please post in thread so the moderators can take care of it.

    If you are going out of town or have limited/no forum access, please post in thread before you leave. It saves frustrations when members post questions but do not get responses.

    Thanks for your help
