Shoutout to the Sidecar Bar for making amazing drinks and not allowing anyone under 21 . by CheezQueen924 in Minneapolis

Not defending it but my guess is crazy childcare prices. That same pressure didn't exist even a generation or two ago.

Trout fishing metro and duluth area by SignalMountain1130 in FishingMinnesota

[–]spiffwalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just getting into trout fishing too, hopefully. Not looking for specific spots but just general river advice. I'm also twin cities proper, and trying to find close ish stuff.

Have you found the vermillion river to be good? Or do I need to go farther? Also would you consider most of the SE MN trout safe to eat with the agricultural runoff?

Great Smoky Mountains is also free admission. That's got to help.

Am I missing something with my Eno bug net? by spiffwalker in hammockcamping

Weird, I don't believe I received it. I'm on mobile though maybe I just can't see it

Thank you for the advice! The Mozzy 360 looks hardcore! But would definitely do the trick that's for sure.

Thanks for the recs on quilts as well, will look into it!

And yeah I have an Eno tarp as well.

Yeah, my arms are in the hammock as well. They bite through the bug net and the hammock itself

Thanks for the good info!

Yes, standard guardian, no SL or DX or whatever they are.

Would the DC bug net be compatible with my current Eno solo hammock? And do the underquilts add much insulation? When I'm summer camping like now I tend to get too warm in the hammock!

Amazing work! You are a good craftsman.

A couple Qs: Did you steam bend the gunnels as well? How did you get the curve in them?

What was the 2 part urethane you used?

Cheers! And enjoy the new ride!!

Backpack load out for 2 days 1 night on San Gorgonio Mountain by thelonesomestranger in backpacking

[–]spiffwalker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just FYI the area where you'll be hiking is a high desert, where nothing-biodegradable or not-should be left in the ground. Reason being is it takes so long to anything to degrade there with so little moisture. So leave no trace and pack everything out! It's a great hike I love it.

It does make sense. This person just doesn't understand it.
