Shug, you are forever on my list of RUclips channels that I will, when a new video is posted, ALWAYS watch. You are a household name with my family and we all love you! God bless, my friend.
I can't wait to save up for one of these!! Ive been talking with Danny for a few months and it sealed the deal when I realized the owner is a good person! Go Superior Hammocks!! Youre the best Shug!! You give me courage to extend my season!!
I'm so concerned about losing the ridgeline stored with my tarp, I'm ready to sew one on to my tarp bag. But maybe inside. And add mini-biners to all the rest. I'm starting to get into having all the hardware for each element to store with the item instead of one big hardware dope bag and individual soft goods in separate bags. But what then to do with the bags? I begin to think about having a length of daisy chain webbing hung up. I saw a camp kitchen at last week's PSH hang where all the utensils were hung that way. Zip zip in and out of storage slicker than owl poop off a wet limb.
you got me on the last early! I yelled out early right away. I find myself yelling out early on a daily bases when me or somebody else says it , nobody gets it . Cheers my friend , another great video!
Thanks for the real world testing of this type of built-in insulation. Yours is one of the few voices of experience in which I would place trust when it comes to hammock recommendations.
Not sure why insulated hammocks haven't caught on more. Like Shug says, they're perfect for people that don't want to fiddle with underquilts, but I think they're also perfect for cold weather camping when drafts are more than just uncomfortable.
@@shugemery I'm in Mpls, too. But I'm an import. I haven't adapted to the harrowing winters, yet. But maybe I'll take a hike and make myself a fancy cup of coffee!
I used to deer hunt and fish some up that way. Family had a place near enough to the 'Baptism that you could hear the water running. ~God's country-- indeed. You are a good fellow to share this treasure with us during these times.
Hammock evolution. Folks borrow good ideas from others, add their own good ideas, stir lightly, and voila! It’s good for all, really. But like someone in comments said, you get dialed in and someone dazzles you with something new. Beautiful video Shug.
Shug, ta video m'a fait du bien et j'aime ton installation (tarp-hamac) grise dans ces bois. Ici, à Paris il est interdit d'aller dans la forêt! Ils m'ont fait rater le printemps et maintenant l'automne. Il faudra qu'ils payent un jour GRRRR! Continue comme ça!Shug, your video made me feel good and I like your grey tarp-hamac installation in these woods. Here in Paris it is forbidden to go in the forest! They made me miss spring and now fall. They will have to pay one day GRRRRR! Keep it up!
I was excited to see you using this hammock. I have been eyeing it for some time now and being made here in MN makes it all the better! Thanks for the knowledge and entertainment
I might have to get one of these. Since it goes between 30 and 70 degrees, and I live in the South where it doesn't get much lower than the 30's in the winter this will be a great Fall and Winter Hammock for me.
Fantastic! This is the first hammock that makes sense to a tent guy. Sewn in UQ: WoW! I can use my sleeping bag as a top quilt. I bet I can afford this rig, given what I now own. Thanks for introducing this product.
Shug long time viewer 2nd time commenter: Love it man, would have loved to have found something like that when I first got into it. I was watching this video in my living room and the little lady came in right when you were doing the poplar prince and she said "is there something wrong with that man" I just busted out laughing. Keep up the good works my friend!!!!
I started hammocking this May and took to it right away, fits nicely on my motorcycle for moto camping. Fined tuned my system along the way, really was half the fun. I started out with a winners outfitters 11 ft double, a cheap bug net, cheap 40 degree under quilt, had i t down to 34 degrees at night (not bad). Safe to say I am hooked! Watching the plethora of videos from the vast Shug library was a valuable asset to say the least. I will be saving over the winter for the Hammock Gear zippered bug net hammock and a 20 degree under quilt. I love Hammock Gear great company. Thank you for all the information and I will be supporting the channel. And if I may add you sir are a master entertainer which is much needed in an otherwise upside down world! Thanks Shug for all you do, my hats off to you Sir!
I must have been watching Shug's videos on and off for almost 10 years now, and the Winter videos always bring me back after a Summer of distraction. I'm always grateful to those who share their passion with others.
Good to test all the gear to know you are all clear in sector 7!! Good gear lasts a long time...taking care of that gear like you have Shug leads to it lasting a liftime!
I am going to have to check that hammock out. It gets darn chilly in these mountains! That was a fine looking fire. I cannot wait to build the first campfire of the year.
Anybody that puts that much thought into the stuff sack...well...you just know the hammock is gonna be good. I gotta say sector 7 looks beautiful this time of year.
Great job on the camera angles, here in Massachusetts we only had one snow storm 6 inches. Well your almost at 100k love the vids keep them coming bud and stay healthy 👍
Another excellent video! The camp sites & the running river water really set the scene. I need to think about investing in one of them hammocks. Saving this video for future reference. Thanks for sharing Shug!!👍 Be safe, see ya 'round
Last week I was looking at the materials I bought to make my first under quilt and thought why not just sleep in this? Searched hammock forums for insulated hammock no luck thought I was missing something maybe condensation. Now I know what to make what’s that white stuff on the ground it can’t be snow. That only comes once every 10 years. Greetings from Deep East Texas
The day my hammock guru and my coffee guru worlds collided... Interested to see what you think of the Bripe after using it for a bit. It feels gimmicky-with-possibilities. And if I ever acclimate to a GE hammock (still getting used to the Draumr too), I plan to try out Danny's system.
It's nice to see you back out hammock camping in the "Early" winter snow. My wife would like a hammock like this. Her UQ has been known to move during the night and she gets cold easy.
Fun fact... You feel warmer after urinating because your body has to keep your urine at a specific temperature to keep it from poisoning your body. The more you know! 🌈🌟
very interesting ! I really like the system incorporated with the underquilt and bravo for your little reading in French you are improving a lot I kiss you and have a good day ! 😜fait attention à toi mon ami !
I hear ya. I'm in the northeast US and we just don't get the explosion of color in the autumn that we used to be famous for. We still get a pretty colorful tree here and there, but climate change has ruined the colors. Sigh...
I love the BBQ sandwiches and your appreciation of how long it takes for good wood smoke flavor. I did a half butt roast yesterday and completing the other half today. Every 30 to 45 minutes I stir the coals and add some wood. It's so easy to eat a ton of it!
I laughed so hard throughout this video! It's rare that I find someone of the same level of singing as myself! Great job showing off the hammock! I was impressed also. Can't wait for the next video...but I will try!

I thought someone else tried an all in one hammock before. But I like this product. If it was priced well it could get more people into ham mocking and out in the outdoors. I just did my last trip for the season and it was pretty chilly but no snow yet. Thanks Shug
Kindest of Sirs!! This was refreshing. Let's talk for a minute about that beautiful accent piece of a wood-burning stove in the picture of your beautiful wife. Wonderful to see you back in your element with blankets of snow.
Thankee Neilbo. That stove puts out the heat. Have to lay on the floor to get under the heat sometimes. Saved us when power went out in the deep winter here a few times.
Thanks for the winter movie Shug! Finding your videos got me off the ground 9 years ago. Now...a new Shug movie is like a call from an old friend. :) You are what I want to be when I grow up...whenever that may be!
Hmm. Interesting hammock , YES your wife is , and I like the Surplus fleece. When I first saw the MK crown , my first thought was . Look folks it's MK's weird little brother :D Looked like fun . Stay safe .. gubs
I guess I hadn't seen Maple King before. That was awesome. Really impressed that you stayed warm well below the temperature rating of the underquilt. As a total hammock noob (I did my first hang 2 week ago), I can totally see people going in for the simplified setup of this vs having to choose separate hammock and underquilts and fiddling with them. Also, I'm really fascinated by your dual stove setup you did there: white gas for the "heavy lifting" of melting snow, and your alcohol stove for making coffee & such. I would have never thought of taking an alcohol stove on a winter trip, and I've done a few of them. You probably already know this, but another way to keep water bottles from freezing is to bury them in the snow. Snow makes a pretty good insulator. We'd bury our nalgenes upside down, and I'd still leave a bit of airspace so that if it did freeze, there was room for expansion.
Thankee. I have had water bottles freeze buried in snow but it was -28º. My coldest trip was -40º It was surreal and in a hammock. ruclips.net/video/CTuGJgka1qc/видео.html
@@shugemery -40! The coldest I've done in Northern Michigan was -7 . Also, I had pump trouble with my Whisperlite when we did a trip to the Adirondacks between Christmas and New Year's a few years back. My pump totally failed on day 3, but it was a group of 6 so we had two other white gas stoves that kept going. Now I have two pumps for my Whisperlite, and I wouldn't do another winter trip without taking both of them with the stove.
Your videos are so relaxing yet versatile, I can watch this channel at any time of day, no matter my mood or situation and truly be calmed, and have a good hearty chuckle.
Shug, you are forever on my list of RUclips channels that I will, when a new video is posted, ALWAYS watch. You are a household name with my family and we all love you! God bless, my friend.

Suspension pocket on the stuff sack , genius what an incredible but simple idea.
Truth.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
I'm so concerned about losing the ridgeline stored with my tarp, I'm ready to sew one on to my tarp bag. But maybe inside. And add mini-biners to all the rest. I'm starting to get into having all the hardware for each element to store with the item instead of one big hardware dope bag and individual soft goods in separate bags. But what then to do with the bags? I begin to think about having a length of daisy chain webbing hung up. I saw a camp kitchen at last week's PSH hang where all the utensils were hung that way. Zip zip in and out of storage slicker than owl poop off a wet limb.
I'm sitting here in Idaho on the fourth of July with 100 degree weather watching shug winter camping. Thanks man.
you got me on the last early! I yelled out early right away. I find myself yelling out early on a daily bases when me or somebody else says it , nobody gets it . Cheers my friend , another great video!
I have to do it now or get called out. Hickery actually started it between us years ago.
It's an inside joke for us cool kids and Maple King aficionados. :D
I often find my way to yours videos while lying in my hammock. I have a couple of eyelets in my garage and like to relax and read in it
Good on ye’
I am glad someone else out there talks to themselves as much as I. Also now I gotta find some of that turtle cocoa I reckon.
I do. Catch myself muttering all the time...with camera off. Disturbing!
Thanks for the real world testing of this type of built-in insulation. Yours is one of the few voices of experience in which I would place trust when it comes to hammock recommendations.
Only way to really truly know. Plus an excuse to get out alone.
Saw a superior hammock at Yates hang and it was instant warmth on a chilly day. I love the lack of fiddle factor. It is on my list.
@@gobybike99 Ahhh that is cool. PG throws a fun hang. Trees galore.

I sorof avoided them...until now. Just back from another trip with it and was warm the whole time.
a thing i learned from shug videos is to never have your feet cold. if your feets are not cold you're never cold. and its true!
Feet, hands and head.
Such a funny guy. I would never winter camp, not in the snow and cold. But you made me think - eh, maybe. The enthusiasm is catching! Stay warm!
Long winter here. So I must. Or I'll pop!

I thought someone else tried an all in one hammock before. But I like this product. If it was priced well it could get more people into ham mocking and out in the outdoors. I just did my last trip for the season and it was pretty chilly but no snow yet. Thanks Shug
There have been. But Danny is serious about it and it won me over.
Kindest of Sirs!! This was refreshing. Let's talk for a minute about that beautiful accent piece of a wood-burning stove in the picture of your beautiful wife. Wonderful to see you back in your element with blankets of snow.
Thankee Neilbo. That stove puts out the heat. Have to lay on the floor to get under the heat sometimes. Saved us when power went out in the deep winter here a few times.
Thanks for the winter movie Shug! Finding your videos got me off the ground 9 years ago. Now...a new Shug movie is like a call from an old friend. :) You are what I want to be when I grow up...whenever that may be!
I'm growing old but not growing up....
I’m having fun catching up on your videos. It feels good to chuckle during these strange times.
Love that!...Whooooo Buddy))))
That hammock sure is tempting.
Truth!
Hmm. Interesting hammock , YES your wife is , and I like the Surplus fleece. When I first saw the MK crown , my first thought was . Look folks it's MK's weird little brother :D Looked like fun . Stay safe .. gubs
Yes, My shy wife. My daughter just knitted her that cashmere poncho top.
@@shugemery WOW !! Very nice .
What an awesome trip! It's nice to have equipment work BEOND its range. Really liked the fuzzy jacket.
That is the truth. Impressive.
I guess I hadn't seen Maple King before. That was awesome.
Really impressed that you stayed warm well below the temperature rating of the underquilt. As a total hammock noob (I did my first hang 2 week ago), I can totally see people going in for the simplified setup of this vs having to choose separate hammock and underquilts and fiddling with them.
Also, I'm really fascinated by your dual stove setup you did there: white gas for the "heavy lifting" of melting snow, and your alcohol stove for making coffee & such. I would have never thought of taking an alcohol stove on a winter trip, and I've done a few of them.
You probably already know this, but another way to keep water bottles from freezing is to bury them in the snow. Snow makes a pretty good insulator. We'd bury our nalgenes upside down, and I'd still leave a bit of airspace so that if it did freeze, there was room for expansion.
Thankee. I have had water bottles freeze buried in snow but it was -28º.
My coldest trip was -40º
It was surreal and in a hammock.

@@shugemery -40! The coldest I've done in Northern Michigan was -7 .
Also, I had pump trouble with my Whisperlite when we did a trip to the Adirondacks between Christmas and New Year's a few years back. My pump totally failed on day 3, but it was a group of 6 so we had two other white gas stoves that kept going. Now I have two pumps for my Whisperlite, and I wouldn't do another winter trip without taking both of them with the stove.
Beauty. Six feet spacing on a trail...amazing. Interesting hammock idea...reduces versatility, though. I choose to wear no orange.
I like orange. Yes, a loss of versatility but will make it easy for many. I liked it way more than I thought I would.
@@shugemery I like the look of the hammock. Orange as a color is ok, but I refuse to be mistaken for a hunter.
@@NoTrail I don't want to be mistaken as a deer. And shot.
@@shugemery The odds are quite slim.
@@NoTrail I don't trust slim odds. You can play the slim odds if that suits you.
Your videos are so relaxing yet versatile, I can watch this channel at any time of day, no matter my mood or situation and truly be calmed, and have a good hearty chuckle.
Thankee for the good words.
Love the snow!
When it hangs in the trees like that it is magic out there.
