So far so good. No Family commitments that weekend. keeping my fingers crossed.

Sorry work work work Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Going to have to pass, I doubt I can make it out of work at 2 and get to site before dark.

I am going to miss the Harriman overnighter so I am try to make this one.

Nice video of real hot tenting Gearfreak. I see where the sleeping bag under a cot would droop more since the cot deflection is less than a hammock. Some fishnet maybe? Anyway looks like foam and Exped pad on top of cot is way to go for now.

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully I can make it, If not, we have all winter to look forward to.

I did, I guess it takes a while. Maybe now the winter weather is upon us they will do some activity on the site. We have a good start so far, hopefully it will keep going. I found a neat place outside Rutland VT on Chittenden Reservoir. Parking area near the dam and when the lake freezes over...

There is an alcohol ban in place at Pachaug State Forest. Please do not bring alcoholic beverages and plan your visit accordingly.:mad:

I am always up for a gathering, but with work, family, and other commitments, I cannot always commit too far in advance. Anywhere in the woods is good. I usually have the week off between Christmas and New Years and can maybe fit in a few days. Ski season is upon us too :) I am trying to...

Hammock hangers use an underquilt for bottom insulation. I am thinking of using a sleeping bag hanging underneath as bottom insulation for a cot. Any thoughts in this? Pros and cons. Still waiting to be accepted on Wintertrekking, I can't post there.

OK I don't work till Sunday. How many Nights are you planning and what is the food situation? I will have to hike out Saturday.

Coldfeet. Are you still planning a trip into Harriman this coming weekend? They had a foot of snow up there this weekend. Looks like we may have to break out the sleds and snowshoes. I don't know if I am working yet. I have a tent and a stove, have yet to set it up.

I see your Wintertrekking gathering is getting quite populated, sorry bout that. I spilled the beans to Robin. I cannot post on wintertrekking yet, they wont let me in. What did you guys say about me? Anyway I am interested in coming. Greenfrog, I have a tent and the stove should be here next...

Nice sled. thanks for the link. Are you doing any winter trekking this year Kevin?

I will have one of these coming my way soon, I hope. http://omaha.craigslist.org/spo/5876515219.html The tent is $150 + $111 shipping to NJ without poles. If you want the poles the shipping for them is over $100 alone. Just in case anybody is interested, after mine is shipped there will be 4...

Coldfeet is trying to plan a trip, possibly in CT., early December. Snapper and Southcove seem to be in on conversation as well, they are posting on Wintertrekking, I registered but have not been accepted there so I cannot post. I guess they know me too well. ;) We will have to get them...

Well I did it. I ordered the Kni-Co Alaskan Deluxe. Hopefully we will get some winter this year and it will get some use.

If I were to take the stove for a paddling trip, I would probably use the sundowner. This would be mainly for winter camping and hopefully an ice out gathering in the spring with Robin and company. Hint Hint.

Nice stove, light and compact enough to fit in Prism. HMMMMMMMMM.

You would be surprised with what I can fit in my Prism. I fit. Thanks I was considering the Deluxe package, and if I order from snowtrekker, they have custom snow float legs, but do not offer the side tank. I will have to ask them they have the brackets to add one.

The tent is a 12x12 Magnum Spike Kamp. The worst case would probably be in the single digits, It would probably be just 2-3 guys inside for sleeping and I would be fine sleeping in my hammock nearby. If they want to tend it all night, good for them. Sounds like the smaller lightweight would be a...
