Hi all,
I've been hammock camping since about '03-ish when I picked up a signed copy of Ed Speer's book. I only recently stumbled onto this incredible compendium of knowledge and after making a Turtledog stand I decided I should register here. This place is amazing!
My first hammock was a symmetrical Hennessey Backpacker, then an Asym Backpacker and those two, my first and only, are still going strong. I like winter camping in New England and have a couple of DIY underquilts that I use in conjunction with pads as necessary and use my ancient sleeping bags as top quilts. Cut off the bug netting long ago.
Heading out this weekend to the Berkshires with about 10 guys for some winter camping, only one other of whom will be hanging in a hammock.
Anyway, glad to be here!
