Re: Cairngorms Loop Best Cairngorms Three Dayer?

Hiya Ericrobo, Slightly confused now as to where you mean - I read 'track north of Bheinn-a-Ghlo' as the track heading north from Falls of Tarf towards Linn Of Dee here http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=299383&y=781192&z=120&sv=299383,781192&st=4&ar=y&mapp=map.srf&sear...

Re: Cairngorms Loop Best Cairngorms Three Dayer?

The track north of Bheinn a Ghlo - fascinated by that ? Is it all push/carry ?
No! it's a fantastic ribbon of singletrack that traverses a steep sided valley - lovely stuff (if you can out run the clegs) ;)

Re: Cheap tarps and bivvy bags?

I've been using what might be the tarps you're talking about, its a highlander camo ebay special. Cant remember what I paid for it (cheepo though). The quality is excelent, very well made with lots of eyelets and even ridge loops - posh. 8-)

Re: Sleeping mat in a hammock?

Cheers flatfishy.
No, funds wont allow me to go down the underquilt route, plus they do look kinda bulky?
I have a dead airic which could be the donor for something similar to your ccf idea.... Hmmm [strokes chin]

Re: Sleeping mat in a hammock?

Just a single layer hammock so what ever I use has to go inside. Perhaps the answer is a new double layer hammock :) I used to 'get away' with using a bit of expanded polythene new tv packaging, which was fine with my synthetic bag but just didn't work at all with down - too much condensation I gues...

Sleeping mat in a hammock?

Should I go and wash my mouth out :)
Perhaps neoair with the tubes being width ways it may suit the hammock shape better?
Used for summer duties only so dont want to go down the underquilt route.
Any thoughts/ advice appreciated
