Re: Re: neo "I noticed that most all of you who felt the Neo "worked" also donned on extra layer(s) of clothing. The places where I hike tend to have nighttime temps in the low to mid 30's e... |

Re: NeoAir Pad -- Too Cool?? I've always used it Limon side up. (Limon is what Thermarest thinks it is, looks mostly green to me.) And I always put the foam on the bottom, to keep the pad from poky things and from slidi... |

Re: Re: NeoAir Pad -- Too Cool?? Not sure why there's so many negative experiences with the NeoAir. I have had the thing in the low 20F range without getting cold - and I am always, always the first one to get cold. I do usual... |

Re: Re: Re: Hammock Tarp I'd carry the tarp 100% of the time. The minute I go without one it will rain, no matter the forecast. Murphy dogs me everywhere. |

Warbonnet BlackBird It was made by a hammocker and includes lots of nice little features that add up to a high quality, comfortable, versatile hammock. I've hung the Blackbird in less than optimal places, over brush ... |

Gossamer Gear I like having a company that responds to emails, has great gear and provides great customer service. I have a Mariposa Plus - what other company would offer to retrofit a pack to the latest frame? I c... |
