What's coming on Spiguyver Backpacking in 2024? 

Get well soon . Best wishes for a speedy recovery 😉👍

Dan From backpacking Adventures uses his iPhone for his videos and it's some of the best cinematic quality I've witnessed on RU-vid. The tarp seems like it will be nice. Pun not intended. Happy healing and remain in good health!

Looking forward to more content.

I was stoked to meet Chad at UGQ and buy a 0-degree Bandit fully loaded. :) My first legit purchase ever was a 20-degree Zeppelin, and wanted to make sure he knew how well it performed in the field, especially in Colorado high sub-alpine. I wanted to win the Majestic Hammock red, white and blue 11' they had hanging from their rig, but alas I didn't win it in the raffle. Definitely going to be my next online hammock purchase.

So glad to see you're better and out enjoying life. Hope to see you again soon. Rain Man

Life happens bro, no apologies needed. I've always enjoyed your content, we're not going anywhere. We'll watch it if/when it comes. Glad to hear you're taking care of yourself first. Happy trails.

Always good to see you and sorry to hear the Harriman vids were lost. Been doing day hikes to check out each of the Harriman shelter areas to see which work for hammocks. Wish there were more areas to disperse camp near Northern NJ

Glad to see you are back. I really hope that you do improve your health. You can become fit and strong again, close to where you were, even at your age! I have been able to do that after problems . 47 and decently fit now!

Well wishes for your health. I lost my go pro last trip out and don't regret it as it was having more and more issues similar to you.

Good to see you back in the saddle my friend. I’m looking forward to pushing each other to get back into backpacking shape for a trip sooner rather than later!

Beard looks great Mark 😂. Nice meeting you at HangCon.

oh the Alpha liner is bonkers nice.

Oof sorry to hear about the health issues. Glad to hear you're getting out. That sucks about the GoPro. I've been loving the DJI Action 4 lately. My workflow with DaVinci Resolve is way faster now. I figured out how to use the preview clips to edit with but still render with 4k footage. Helps with my potato computer. The flip up acreen on the Insta360 looks nice. The Polartech Alpha bag liner looks so nice. I want one.

Great vid.

It was great to meet you at HangCon Mark! Did something happen to your new bonded tarp?? Don't leave us hanging like that haha

I'm super happy to hear about disc golf! I've been playing for 7 years and am still awful but I love it! Slow is smooth and smooth is far when throwing lol. I found you about 5 years ago when planning my first backpacking trip at devils den in arkansas. Thanks for all the informative and entertaining videos! Glad you're taking care of yourself. Happy trails!

Disc golf is fun man. I had a hip replacement in Dec 2022 went for the follow up and the surgeon is ready to do the other, I’m 45 not 75 damn. Getting old ain’t for wussy’s.

Welcome back and def looking forward to more content. Also curious what happened to your tarp? The DW bonded xenon is what I've been thinking moving up to, so curious if I should consider other avenues.

Hi mark glad to see you back. I have been looking for a bridge hammock for a while and like the look and the space of the towns end hammock you have. I know you like yours but reviews wise theres not many so i can't really gauge what people really think of them apart from yours. Will you be doing a video of how to do the underquilt and getting that sealed. Also the bug net. Is the underquilt harder to fit on a towns end than on the banyan

@allanhowt 1 second ago If you come to Cali let me know. Disc golf and Tahoe Rim Trail.

My gopro8 freezes, loses footage, not totally waterproof, and sucky battery life so I rarely use the thing. The newer ones are supposed to be better but still have issues. I looked at that insta360 and the tiny one. Ended up getting an X3 which is ok but the zoom feature is grainy. I usually use my canon or my phone for filming. DJI scares me due to the blacklisting of their software. (2 gimbals i might grab a burner phone to film with if they decide to root it) Family comes first. So does health. We understand.

Northville placid trail…. Adirondacks at their best

im hearing that we should do the jmt in September? I applied for permits

Sorry to hear your health issues are still bothering you
