    He will have a sleeping pad to help supplement an UQ and I have an UQP for him. He'll be in an 11 ft hammock and he is 5ft 7" tall.

    Any help is appreciated to get him out of a tent. Worst case is he comes with a tent & he can use my hammock & I'll use his tent. We plan to arrive Friday.

    Put any gear needs into the spreadsheet so others can see and perhaps bring what he needs. There are about 50 attendees (not all are on the spreadsheet) I am sure there will be plenty to go around if he needs something. looking forward to seeing you again.

    Dale Kipstein is on the sign-up sheet, but no user profile name. Is he on HFs? Dale?

    ** figured it out** I plan on attending this year for my first time. Having issues signing up. I clicked on the Google doc but can't add my name. Sorry I'm new to all this. It will be just me. I'm coming from lake Geneva.

    I have a variety of UQ as well. I have a -20° set, a superior gear 15° set (sewn into the hammock?) And a +20° hang tight set, I also have a home made 40° and 2 50° as well. I guess it all depends on the weather 🤷🏻 I aslo have a zenbivy sleeping pad that's r5 insulated if needed.

    Hey Kattdog & Jayman,

    Thanks much for being willing to share your UQs! Many options. I think Katt's shorter 0*F may work well. If needed we can stack a lighter UQ.

    If you are accessing the spreadsheet on your phone, you'll need to download the Google Sheet app first in order to edit. -k

    Nick, I just found out Susan B is going on your snowshoe trip this weekend and the frozen butt hang. She said you will be bringing a very large cooking pan to both. With that said, should I bring my skillet I use every year for cooking the bacon, eggs and pancakes? No need to carry it if you already have something as large to cook with.

    Susan and I go to spin class together. Just by chance we talked about winter camping. What are the chances that conversation comes up at a class and we are both going to the hang. Too funny. She will now be riding with me since I have been to the hang location.

    Are you staying the whole time, or are you one night standing it again lol
