Hello Natural Bushcraft

[Kit Mac]

Hello everyone,
I've been knocking around in the woods for a while now. I enjoy hammocking and lightweight hiking as well as more 'traditional' bushcraft. Looking forward to seeing how you guys do things :).
All the best,
Kit

Indeed it is bud, what a coincidence, both from Hull and both have the Z1 :D


I'm considering getting a hammock/tarp setup though to try on next meet in July.

[Kit Mac]

Ha, small world indeed!

If your in the market for a hammock check out the offerings from Tenth Wonder. I've got the Green Hornet 1.8m wide model and a Sargasso Storm tarp.

I'm looking at various brands at the moment and will do some more research into reviews/opinions soon. I dont mind tents as they're more versatile but like the look of hammocks and been told they are very comfy.

[Kit Mac]

Comfiest nights sleep you can get in the woods IMO. But they do present there own problems (Cold Butt Syndrome :)). Hammock hangings a bit of an art in itself, but worth it!

But surely a decent air mat or underquilt to create cavity would keep arse warm? :)

[Kit Mac]

I use the DIY poncho liner under quilt (the one in 'The Ultimate Hang'), with a thermarest. Might invest in a down one at some point, but lots of ££'s!

PLUQ - Not bad for £20 :)

But it struggles in this!

[ADz]

I have a decent down bag aswell as a thermarest and some thermal layers so hopefully that will be enough, If not I think I'll go the under-quilt option too.

btw, thnx for pix. :)

[Kit Mac]

Sounds good, no problems :)
