    Also, if anybody has one, could you measure the foot width and approximate knee width as they aren't mentioned on the Snugpak site. Cheers

    Snugpak Tactical series sleeping bags

    Hi all, I know there are a million posts about sleeping bags but I am looking at buying a Snugpak Tactical 4 for cold weather hammock/bivi camping. It looks like it will tick all the boxes and if it's any good I may buy a cooler one for summer use. Does anyone have one and in reality how...

    Stoke/Staffs/Cheshire/Shropshire sites?

    Hi all, Anyone from Stoke or Staffs area got any good places they have hammocked in and not been told to move on? Fires allowed? Even Shropshire or Cheshire would be considered. There must be a load of landowners with private woodland suitable for "sensible" bushcrafters out there, anyone...

    North Wood Extended Meet! August 23 - September 01 2013

    Damn and blast, it's looking like I will be on call for work from 23rd Aug - 1st Sept so probably can't make it now. I don't suppose it will be starting any earlier in the week...? I might be able to get a couple of days off work if it is. Work always gets in the way of enjoyment. Grrr.
