    Sorry for the slow reply. I think the pack is spoken for now, says he will send a money order.

    Lowa Tibet GTX 8.5 wide EUC for sale

    Great boots, great condition. IF you're willing to stick your nose in and take a whiff, they still smell new. Bought new, owned them approximately a year and worn on some training hikes to break them in. I have not put any sealer or anything else on them. Tough decision to sell these, but...

    DIY Apex Quilt Complete

    Looks good! I'm finishing up a diy megatarp and am thinking about doing a quilt next. You're right about this thin, slippery fabric being tough to control. Add insulation to the mix and I bet it gets messy. I will have to look into that more before I jump into this project.

    Diy megatarp

    Ya. I had it in my head correctly, but we were looking at it from different directions. Much easier over the phone than typing back and forth - thanks again. So, first pitch to check things out went well. Some of my sewing is pretty butt ugly, but serviceable. Left it up over night in...

    Diy megatarp

    Sorry to bring this up again, but I cant' seem to wrap my head around it. I've sewn the 7' ridge line and 4 corner stake loops. Ready to cut the angles on both ends (I'm putting a 'center zip annex' at both ends). My fabric is the 58" wide stuff. "With 58" goods the answer is 32.56"...

    Diy megatarp

    Yes, the plans have been very helpful and much appreciated. I should say that I plan to use this shelter mostly in shoulder and winter seasons with a stove and that influences my decisions. I haven't decided on a zipper size/weight (?) yet and will seek some more experienced advice there. I...

    Diy megatarp

    I have looked over this megatarp post for a while and just noticed your addition to it - looks good. I had the same idea to build it w/o an annex and just zipper both ends closed. Simplifies the construction, could reduce the number of guylines, and possibly lightens it up a little. In good...

    Base camp tent suggestions.

    You might look into snowtrekkertents.com I never notice them mentioned outside of winter camping circles, where they are very popular and used tents hold their value well. We had a 9x11.5 we alot, but my family of 5 outgrew. They have small, solo sizes and larger sizes for basecamps/hunting...

    Megatarp questions - current version

    Yeah, I thought about that which is part of why I was trying not to call back right away. I'm not in a hurry to buy anything, just want to have correct info percolating through my cocunut. Thanks

    Megatarp questions - current version

    I left a message for customer service and haven't heard back. I hoped someone might chime in here to avoid calling them again. I want the stove jack, just don't see on their site that it is specifically included or a place to add it as an option. It doesn't say anything about velco or...

    Megatarp questions - current version

    Howdy. First post, but have appreciated the info available here for some time. I'm becoming more and more interested in Kifaru's Megatarp. Appears that it has gone through some updates and now I'm not clear on how all the features work. Is the sewn in entrance closed by velcro or zipper...
