Hello,
my good friend Pete, AKA Ogrithetrog, recently made an Ogripod, along the lines of a peapod style outer shell for you, your hammock and your sleeping bag. After my last winter Bushmoot, back in December, where I managed to freeze during the night, I thought, I'm going to need another sleeping bag, or an underblanket, or something else.
So in the last one or two weeks, I've been putting together my own Ogripod, it's made from an old king size duvet, which is 10 tog, then covered in DPM camo material, with a nice big zip, to easily gain access, and provide ventilation.
The ends are just pulled together, again to allow some air flow.
I'm planning on using it this weekend, at the Welshmoot in West Wales, and I'm really hoping I'm going to be toasty.............
Wish me luck, and I'll drop anotehr report in after the weekend.
Here's a couple of pics to show how it looks hung up in my back yard....
What do you reckon? your comments would be appreciated
