^^^^^ What he said.
Good info on the permethrin in regards to ruining the hammock, I'd still use an ounce of caution and maybe test it in regards to breathability. Very important in hammocks.
Don, good advice. I'd do some research on how Permethrin affects ripstop nylon. I don't want you burning holes in your hammock from prolonged contact.
Consider whoopie slings for your hammock...
Careful with the bug repellant, could damage the ripstop nylon. Also pretty sure that would take away almost all breathability of the hammock. On the bright side, not as many bugs right now.
You...
1. Just get an Izula or something and wrap the handle with zing-it.
2. No need for shorts, just grow out all that manly hair and it will cover things up. If you feel squeamish, just get some big...
That was awesome! Thank you!
Do you know exactly where you're going to be the few days before you start? You could arrange delivery to said place and have it there when you get to the US, then test it right before you go....
My last 5 trips in GSMNP (when I still lived there) had bears visiting the campsite. If anything, it keeps the bears by the bear lines and not by your hammock. It's just as much for the bear's...
This is what I use.

As gram weenie the obvious choice is shine. However that's a very vague answer. White lightning is always strong, but doesn't taste all that great by itself- you can add a crystal light packet if...
I got a pair of off brand crocs for 10 bucks at a tourist t-shirt shop. They weigh in under 11oz and cost very little. They have little bumpy things inside that massage my feet after a long day of...
I just recently purchased a second-hand 2011 Circuit with Dyneema side pockets. It's mint condition. So... SO happy with it. I've been drooling over a ULA pack for months after seeing one in person...
Back from the trip? Send me pics!
Maybe pack frames, eyelets for boots/shoes, grommets on tents/tarps, tent poles, trekking poles... there are so many applications for lighter and stronger. I agree, cookware might not be the best...
You are using the X-frame, right? If so your nice expensive sleeping bag would be on the ground, which doesn't sound all that great. You could use your trash bag under the sleeping bag in a pinch...
We're friends and fraternity brothers... I've been trying to get him to join this sight for a while now. He finally did and didn't tell me!
I know who you are... ParkRat09... I know where you live... ParkRat09... I gave you that name... ParkRat09... I gave you a bottle of vodka once... ParkRat09 (could I be any more creepy?)
Hey thanks for the info and inquiry. My buddy "Parkrat" should be out there when you are tridavis... if you see him tell him Ben says "sup. Get to Oregon, son"
If you don't mind the weight penalty then go for the extra pad, It's better to be heavy than cold! Can't go wrong with Dutch Buckles and Whoopies, I just got mine in the mail today! As far as the...
I have a Deuter ACT Lite 50+10 I'm about to put up for sale if you want. Like new condition :) (50 liter that expands to 60)
Wind screen for your stove setup?
Z-lite pad and a 20degree Phoenix? A phoenix will keep you warm below 20... not much, but adding a z-lite? You can get a Gossamer Gear pad for pretty cheap and...
Always wear a cup!
+1 on anything from HG. They will do pretty much anything you ask them to do. Also they use 900fp down and have top notch stitching. I would say a 40degree Burrow with 2oz overstuff would take you...
Zpack shelters are really nice... then again... you could always go hammock! AHHHHHH!
