I went this route mostly cause I had a coupon that was expiring

I love my K9 table. Got the large. No basin in it, but I use a collapsible basin on top of it for washing. Aluminum table. Super light. Folds thinner than the plastic tables.

Got the Mountain Hardwear Super DS jacket. I like it. looks like it could be my new go to jacket for everything. Its not as puffy as i thought, which is good. Lighter than I thought. I mainly got it for day trips and car camping, but i think it may pack up enough for backpacking also. Oh, also got the BD Spot 325. So I'm ready for day and night bouldering now.

 

My cooking setup. Middle of Moab I made lasagna, baked potatoes, BBQ ribeye steaks, chocolate chip cookies and brownies. Plus all the comforts of home after a good day of wheeling. Life is good Brother.

 

You win.

 

My addiction began with becoming a wilderness guide.. i have no self control with backpacking gear, hunting gear, primitive survival, etc..

My main obsession is centered around backpacks.. why do I need so many? I don’t think I can even answer that question.

im now working on my car camping gear.. ultralight backpacking gear doesn’t work for family camping trips with the kids.. I’ve boxed up and stored most of my nice backpacking stuff and am slowly accumulating and becoming an epic car camper

niiiiiice!

 

My hammock ripped recently, anybody know of a good bug net hammock other than the ENO?

 

If you want to spend a decent chunk of money, you should buy the Amok and report back your findings!

 

Last week picked this up https://www.rei.com/product/148248/rei-co-op-magma-15-sleeping-bag-mens Needed to replace my old bag that served me good for 10 years. Just need to go test it out!

 

Nice setup!!!

 

Both too heavy and too expensive I think. Looking for something I can backpack with.

 

I know. I was being sarcastic

I’ve always been an Eno guy. Haven’t ventured out from them because I still have my original eno

LOL. All of them besides ENO.

You get, pretty much, what you pay for.

Warbonnet, but I sold almost every one I had.
Hammock Gear.

Seriously. Your height, weight, etc and use will determine the best for you.
I tried so many gathered end hammocks and was not happy. Now I use a bridge hammock. JustBill made mine.

 

I have the Hennessy Hyperlite. I believe thats the model i have. sub 2lbs with everything. I like it.

 

AntiGravityGear. Local (US) made.

EDIT. I personally avoid Hennessy... Tom's a dick IRL.

 

Who wants a nearly new backpack??

Hobo hammocks. I can hook you up with a discount too. Send me a PM if interested

 

That thing looks sweet! But for a big guy like me, I’m right on that weight limit.. that would be a bad way to wake up in the middle of the night

also, I’ve had several friends with the Hennessy and they seem to get trashed easily. Always chalked it up to operator error but could just be below average materials.

friend of mine showed me a hammock recently that looked amazing! It was one of the all in one setups with net and a tarp. I’ll see if I can find the brand

 

That’s to bad... AGG is based is Wilmington!
