Hi all
Newbie with hammocks. Enjoying the wealth of information on the forum and the great videos people post. Couple of things I’m sure of for me – no camping in cold weather anymore and I traded the backpack for a car.
Started chasing the “stuff” already. I can see this being crazy / fun chase
Hey from Central Arkansas. Gear does become addictive.
Welcome from Arizona!

Car camping in the cold isn't too bad. Clear nights, no bugs. Good luck chasing the stuff. Lots of great options and vendors here!
Welcome from a fellow newb. I have spent a lot of time digging deep into the various topics, like 110 pages deep. There are many very interesting threads that chart the evolution of gear. Many discussions from some of the cottage makers, a lot from their beginnings. Very interesting stuff.
I have been practicing on a sewing machine, and have made one thing at this point, a mesh gear loft for my ridgeline. I have a quilt kit here, and a couple of used down bags coming from ebay. The latter will get attachment points for "clews" suspension, and the kit will be finished as designed.
If the bags work out, I will be very happy, and have some cold weather gear to get out at the best time of year.
Lots to learn, many brilliant folks have made their way through this site.
@Bengo. Thank you. Some beautiful country in Arkansas. Use to hang out in NW AR chasing trout with a stick and a string in the area
@Boston fan...Thank you and great point! No bugs!
@Lorazepam - Thank you. yeah, I can go deep into them also. Lots to read. Good for you having the skills to make some stuff. That is awesome!
I'm skilless and depend on the cottage makers. I have all ready started my desent into the deep- will get to test drive my WB Eldorado and Tensa4 next week
Sounds like you are getting squared away.
