    The hip belt is floppy, my frame was squeaky, and was generally uncomfortable for me (215lbs 5 11 27lbs load). I think this pack is honestly great as a UL pack, but I think I’m going to take my mystery ranch next time I head out. I think investing a few extra lbs on an ergonomic pack makes an incredible difference with back strain.

    I love, and have a lot of Hilltop Pack gear. First thing I do with any of those products is crinkle them up in a ball. It’s an instant break-in and it eliminates a lot of the initial noise right off. Just curious, would you say that hilltop shirt was in line with your normal shirt size?

    Ben and crew are the real deal. I don’t need any new bags at the moment. I did watch Ben’s video on the new material the other day. I’ve been purchased 90% of my bags from Hilltop Packs over the last several years and they definitely have my support. Oh, and congratulations, Taylor on your recent section hike of the CT!

    Yes. And on the other end, you also need to get it bone dry for storage, or else you'll have to recondition it w bleach water (not vinegar) to get rid of accumulated biofilm. Pre-dry for storage, pre-wet for usage.

    I have the 12' Journey with linelocs and just ordered the 12' Quest with D-rings. After using the linelocs, I learned that I prefer using shock cord on the anchor points with linelocs attached to the shockcord. It gives tension with a little bit of flex. I also love the center anchor point on the Journey for a single pole porch mode and was able to order the Quest the same way. Hammock Gear makes some pretty decent gear and the customer service and prices are great!

    • @miconn69
      @miconn69 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Update. I bought the 12' Quest with the small D-rings. I set it up using the WideArc Internal Pole Mod Kit from Hanging High Hammocks and Linelocs attached with shock cord. Total gamechanger. Its an awesome combination. I especially love the room it provides and the ability to set to porch mode easily. I highly recommend!

    Very informative video! Thanks for the info on the Garmin watch adapter. What I started carrying is an Apple Magnetic phone charger. It was a must on the Colorado Trail. It’ll allow you to charge your phone even if your phone’s regular charging port gets water which I had happen on the Eagle Rock Loop once. I couldn’t charge my phone two days.
