    Kifaru woobie/doobie

    Generally speaking I can get down around 32 with my Woobie, baselayers and a hat. The Doobie gets me down into the 20's. In the low 20's I'll likely be wearing my Microtex pants and shirt also. Maybe even my Kifaru vest/sleeves. Much colder than that its time for my 0 deg. MOB. It's too bad they...

    Wouldn't a Large Kifaru POD accomplish the same thing with less cost and weight?

    bigger guy sleeping suggestions

    http://www.backcountrygear.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?manufacturer=Therm-a-Rest&q=2nd Some good pricing. I'm a tick smaler than you @ 6' 200 and like 25 or so wide pads. Kifaru makes some good wide bags. https://kifaru.net/slickbag.html I also like to sleep in my Woobie or Doobie...

    New Kifaru Megatarp

    Ditto what Larry said. PVC has been used for pole extensions and it supposedly works well. There is some fiddle room with the Annex, but not a whole lot. I have the best luck sticking close to the specified pole height. That being said I like to prop up the non stove side of the ST/Annex when...

    New - Little Sibling Stove from Seek Outside

    Just for grins I broke out the small Kifaru tonight to see how long it took me to boil. I've never really timed it before and with tonights cool weather, it made for a nice evening in the backyard for Jr. and I making a cup of hot cocoa. From lighting the fire to having 2 cups of boiling water...

    Thermarest Xlite?

    According to Therma-rests web specs the Regular sized 40th Anniversary model weighs 1-8, is 2" thick and has old school diagonally cut foam inside. http://cascadedesigns.com/therm-a-rest/mattresses/fast-and-light/40th-anniversary-limited-edition/product

    New - Little Sibling Stove from Seek Outside

    I didn't catch the fact that there is no bottom on this stove. There is no way I'd use it in a tipi/tarp around here. I'd have everything on fire with our soils. I have to agree with dotman, there are better options out there currently that allow for cooking/boiling. Dropping the Jetboil from...

    A couple cheap, lightweight items!

    Hit up the local Wally World this weekend. After a 2 year hiatus, my beloved Wally World closed cell foam pads re-appeared...$15...I bought 2...lol...might grab a couple more if they hang around. 24" x 72" x 1/2", made by Ozarktrail IIRC. Smooth on one side, egg crate shaped on the other. Way...

    New - Little Sibling Stove from Seek Outside

    Interesting stove being that UL, but not having the ability to cook on in the tipi would rule it out. I cant think of any time that I'd NOT want to boil my water on the woodstove if I bothered to carry it in. The ability to use your tipi stove to cook lunch while out hunting has some appeal also.

    Floorless Shelters

    I've heard some good reports about this stuff. I'd like to get a few items and see for myself. I don't like slathering up in DEET. http://www.cedarcidestore.com/cedarproducts.html Seems like a few squirts of the spray around inside the ole tipi oughtta keep'em knocked down for the duration...

    Floorless Shelters

    My I doc put me onto a new kind this time around too....forget the brand. They seem a bit better than the B&L extended wears I've been using. Really would like to get the Lasik treatment...screw these contacts...

    Food!! What are you taking on your trips.

    Good luck. If you find something to suit your taste buds, I'm sure you'll be impressed. I tried the SW Lasagna and didn't care for it, but found the Beef Stew to be awesome. The Breakfast Casserole was decent, needed a tick more salt for my taste. I've got some Sweet Italian Sausage and Pasta...

    Floorless Shelters

    I dont take mine out when camping. I'm fortunate to be one of those people who can wear them for days on end without them (usually) bothering me. I just hit'em with eyedrops a few times during the day and am GTG.

    Food!! What are you taking on your trips.

    I've not tried them all but there are a few that I really like...esp. the breakfast grits. Much better than MH IMHO.

    NEW Kifaru Duplex Timberline Series

    You and me both! I really like the looks of the LSL. I borrowed my cousins G1 LS for a quick 2 night trip into a pards 12 man prior to me buying my G1 Siwash a few years back. We were flip flopping 'drives' and wound up with two smallish Whitetail bucks the first day I was in there. I gave the...

    Floorless Shelters

    Once you go floorless, its over...you'll love it. The only downside I can see is the moisture from the ground winds up on the walls of the shelter. No biggie for me as I'm usually in a Kifaru with a stove and can beat the moisture down quite a ways...the rest I wipe off with a spare shirt...
