Time Cowboy posted:This is kind of a specific request, but does anyone know of a hike in southern New York / northern New Jersey / western Connecticut that features a lot of springtime wildflowers? I'm dying to see a color that isn't brown or dull green or flat gray. (Though I probably have to wait at least another month.) Good resource for that area: http://www.nynjtc.org Sterling Forest State Park has some nice hiking. The mountain laurels around the lakes in Harriman State Park are spectacular, but they won't bloom until late May or early June.

MMD3 posted:We're heading to Jackson, WY the first week of August. Could anyone recommend some great hikes to do in/around the Tetons? I think we're looking for like 3-5 hour hikes rather than full-day outings. Surprise and Amphitheater Lakes is a great one. It's strenuous, 3000 feet of elevation gain in a little less than 5 miles, but it's worth it.

Warbonnet has some hammocks with a 400 lb capacity (double layer 1.7 Blackbird). Never seen one in person but they seem to review very well. Won't find them on REI, though. http://www.warbonnetoutdoors.com/blackbird/

Mr. Powers posted:I've got one of those yellow folding CCF pads that I carry with me. In the winter hiking classes they said they're basically a must because you need to insulate any seat. I'm hoping that would work. The two layer hammocks were pretty interesting because of that, but I didn't think the blackbird had the weight capacity I needed.

Yeah, looks like they've got the full specs for the individual models under "warranty information" in their mobile store, for whatever reason. Probably an oversight or a limitation, as you said. Click the headers to collapse or expand info for each model.

From dimple to dimple and ridge to ridge they're both about 3/4", but the foam itself on the RidgeRest is definitely thicker (see the weight difference; RR is heavier by 5 oz in the same size).

cheese posted:Its time to stop bumming a gear setup for this summer. I'm a side sleeping 6'2"/220lbs and looking for an inflatable pad. The reviews all seem to point me towards either the Neoair Xtherm or the Big Anges Q Core SL. This thread seems to love them both, so a couple of questions. I've got the XTherm and I love it. 1) I don't find the noise to be an issue at all, but I can imagine it might be for very light sleepers. If you can check a display model out in person, I think you'll be able to make a determination on that very quickly. 2) I side sleep a lot as well and 2.5" of thickness has been plenty for me. Granted, I weigh about 50 pounds less than you, but I really doubt you'll bottom out as long as you've sufficiently inflated the pad. I think the horizontal baffling style helps with this. At your height, you might want to go with the large, especially if you back sleep at all. The extra width is key for back sleeping.

Keldoclock posted:Shop by R-value. But yes, inflatable will be heavier than foam for the same R-value. If anyone knows of an exception to that, This is definitely not the case for high-end inflatables. The R-values of the XTherm and Q-Core are a lot higher than those of foam pads for a very small weight difference. Price and reliability are where foam pads shine. For example: XTherm, regular size (inflatable): R-value 5.7, 15 oz Z Lite Sol, regular size (foam): R-value 2.6, 14 oz Feedbacker fucked around with this message at 07:36 on Apr 13, 2015 |

Biggus Duckus posted:Thanks for the suggestion, I like the idea of a zippered bottom much better than a sewn. I'll probably pull the trigger on that soon, just gotta decide on a new pad. I have poor circulation but a R-value of 5+ is still probably overkill for 3-season stuff. I use a 20 degree EE Revelation with a large Xtherm, it's a good combo. If you end up going with the Xtherm and you back-sleep at all, I would get the large size for the extra width. If you side-sleep exclusively, you should be fine with the regular (unless you're really tall, of course).

Stanley Goodspeed posted:What's everyone's go to solution for coffee while backpacking? Instant? Tea bag things? Please help Medaglia D'oro Instant Espresso. Cheaper than Vias per serving and tastes at least as good, in my opinion. It comes in 2-ounce glass jars instead of packets though, so some repackaging may be necessary. Can be premixed with sugar and/or powdered milk to taste if desired. Feedbacker fucked around with this message at 11:04 on Feb 25, 2017 |

Oakland Martini posted:I am going on a road trip from Kalispell, MT to Denver, CO during the last week of August and the first week of September, and I am trying to get my itinerary settled now because my parents want to meet up with me for part of it. I plan to visit Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Rocky Mountain National Parks for 2 days each, and I'd like to know what the best hikes in each park are. Any suggestions on this front would be very helpful. Also, I would welcome suggestions for any other great hiking outside of the parks along this route. Thanks! Grand Teton: Lake Solitude inside the park, Table Mountain outside the park.
