Sirblessed 2,511 Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 I decided that my old hammock was getting a little threadbare and it was time to treat myself to a new one ... after a fair of searching and talking to a few people I decided on the Lawson blue ridge ... I will get it out as soon as I can to try it out .... With the rainfly attached ...... To bloody hot here for them here, looks a beauty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
