    Need Under-quilt, winter tarp and cinch buckles

    We live in the Himalayas in India. Last year I got a 11ft Dream Hammock Sparrow, and determined to "make do" without a decent under-quilt and tarp. I've had some wonderful nights with my under-quilt made of airline blankets, and a big blue builders tarp, but it is time for something better. I would love to sleep in my hammock, but it is just too cold.

    A friend is coming to visit from the USA in March, and she could carry some gear for me.

    First prize would be a Superior Gear shelter and hammock, but I would consider any winter tarp and 3/4 or full-length under-quilt that would fit into my backpack and limited budget. I need to be comfortable at 0'Celsius or 32 F

    I am also looking for some cinch buckles on continuous loops, or whoopie slings. I've become quite good at knots, but realize the benefits of an easily adjustable suspension system. I am also now dead scared of those knots slipping.

    Shug, this morning I watched your "Silence on Superior Hiking Trail Overnighter" video, and am so inspired. We had snow this week, and after three months of enforced bed-rest after a back injury, I so long to hang between two trees. Thank you for encouraging us yet again with your indomitable spirit.

    Still looking? 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)
