Thought I'd make an offering, taken on my iphone around 2am Thursday past, very low mist that rolled in through the trees almost illuminescent, low cloud cover for a few hours then the northern...

Hello again all, first off apologies for the delay in posting the review as promised, life gets in the way sometimes, on a plus note I've had the bag out a few times so feel in a more educated place...

Just a quick update, the latest storm front that blew in wiped out yesterdays plans, I don't mind the rain but winds topping 60mph not for my liking, A bit more settled today so ventured out this...

Hi there, no experience with em so unfortunately useless on that front lol, would say that looks a nice bit of kit though, I like the duality factor of a hammock/bivvy, planning a trip later on this...

I can only speak for the DD camping hammock as that's my current rig, website states weight of 650g for hammock only, but with 10m of webbing and stuff sack it comes in exactly at 1.1kg, Use wise its...

Nah not the kestrel mate although that is a nice bag, I'm a tight arse lol went the surplus route for the bog standard ex issue 4 season bag, this one to be exact...

Lol now there's a thought, someone will snap it up :). Never thought to look at it that way either, the bag is 2008 issue I think, grade 1 condition and I will say you may be spot on coz I was really...

I'm currently hanging a DD rig, I have looked into the snugpak gear and may possibly venture their way for my next hammock and also like the look of their underblankets although a bit pricey, one...

I usually carry a zebra can for boiling stuff or using as a small oven and a wire rack for grilling, I use a copper bottomed stainless steel plate with a foldable handle that doubles as a frying pan...

Not used the liquid gel stuff but I use the solid gel blocks in my flash brew kit, 1 block in my little home made pin stove boils a brew in a few mins, a couple thrown in a side pocket carry no real...

The super light jungle hammock might be worth a look for versatility, bit pricier than others in the DD range but can be used as a hooped bivvy also, would love it if santa brought me one of those...

Thank you

I'd also chuck my tuppence worth in their favour, great bit of kit to have in your pack, will be using it through this winter and I'm aware of the cold issues but the thing is so small (I use the...
