    Hammock Forums is a Family-Friendly Site - No Profanity, No Flaming 


    Hammock Forums is a family friendly site. This means that our topics, language and treatment of each other are what you'd want your kids to see. We're not a bunch of prudes...we just think that the internet has enough places where that behavior is tolerated, and this particular site shouldn't be one of them. This is a great community where the norm is to support others in their ideas and projects, and not assume offense where none is intended...and therefore not to flame, call names, or create friction in our threads. Respectful disagreement is ok; disrespectful comments are not.

    Please participate in accordance with these guidelines, and PM the mods with any questions.

    Religion and the Holidays on HF 


    Just a friendly reminder of HF's Terms of Service re: discussing religion and politics on this forum. It's not allowed.

    I thought a reminder would help us stay focused. Applying the TOS to the holidays, it's ok to wish folks Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Solstice, Kwanzaa or whatever...but discussions about the religious aspects of the holidays will be removed. We're here to discuss hammocks, so if you have strong feelings about religion and the holidays, please find another forum to discuss them.

    Political and Military Posts on Hammock Forums 

    Published on 03-15-2014 02:22

    Hammock Forums has always had a strict rule against political and religious posts. This has normally applied to issues that most members can agree are contentious...gun rights and carry laws, differences in religion, political elections and candidates, etc. As we've said several times, this isn't about First Amendment rights but about keeping this particular site respectful and on-topic.

    A few questions and observations after sleeping iin a hammock for the first week...

    I think the peeing issue has more to due more with being able to relax more in a hammock than a bed. Before having a baby I never woke up to use the restroom,

    Augh! That drives me bonkers! I got a Dutch Winter Tarp and was in awe when I took it out of the stuff sack... Then I tried to put it back in the bag!

    Your First and Current Hammock?

    My first was a Dutchware 11' gathered end with a Summer Sock and a HG 20* under quilt. I added a 30* HG Econ top quilt and a Hennessey Hammock asym tarp.

    Down quilt zone filling?

    Plastic ziplock bags filled with the appropriate amount of down for the chamber. Aka divide the amount you are going to use by the number of chambers.

    Trying to decide between these two top quilts.

    In rereading the initial post, I see you also have to consider going to ground. In that case, you might consider the Wide option if you go with HG's Burrow.
