    These last few post should be moved to our new hammock forum. Oh yeah, where is it? Do any of the powers that be actually read the forum/ admin. support forum? Been awfully quiet upstairs… I know nag, nag.

    Hi Isaac,

    Great info.

    Until we get the Hammock forum on BPL. Why don't we all just keep using this spot.

    FWIW, I'm in support of a new hammock forum too.

    Rather than contribute to a debate that I'm woefully uneducated on, I've decided to respond to the one person who PM'ed me and asked, politely, for a hammock forum. After consulting with Dr. J, here's what we came up with:

    It's in Off Piste. Go nuts!

    That's great Addie! Now we know who to go to when we really want to get something done ;) Thanks again.

    Hammock use is backpacking gear (shelter/sleeping system) and not an off piste activity. BPL published SUL articles on it. My 1 cents ; ).

    Thanks Addie and BPL. As the one who wrote Addie about getting this done, I also suggested that it go on the Off Piste section. Granted the hammock is a shelter/sleeping system. A lot has happened since those articles were published also. But since no sub forum exists for that either, G Spot only. There is a whole subset of hammock specific gear(like for packrafting, photography, etc) like hammock types; bridge, gathered end, netting attached, netting separate, etc..) Underquilts, suspension types,and components. Nacrabiners, soft shackles, ucr, specialty tarps, etc.. It just seemed like the best place for it. I'm sure that now that it is here we'll make good use of it. Thanks again.
