Packing Tips for Family Adventures

by Kyle Wood

Baggage fees are the worst. No seriously, there's not much I dislike more. Luckily Grand Trunk makes these ridiculously packable compression packs. I could tell you how much these babies can fit but you should just see for yourself. Take...

You love camping, your buddies love camping but your wallet?... not so much. Well summer is here and you don’t want to just stay home and whine about not having enough money. We have the best tips for cheap camping without...

Trunk Straps are SO AWESOME!

We always had the starter straps and we finally got the trunk straps- game changer! They’re so strong, easy to use, and cover a far distance so you can hang them from the perfect trees. We have used them so much more than we thought we would.

Better than the first!

I had my first hammock from Grand Trunk for about 3 years and I cherish every memory I’ve made with it. I just purchased a new one and everything about it is amazing. The light weight, the softness of the fabric, the design, it’s incredible.

Great start on a Hammock Life Journey

Purchased this for my 10 year old's birthday and I am thrilled with the gift. She is an introverted kid who loves to read and having a little escape for her in the front yard is simply perfect. It might be the best present I've ever bought her. Fits her nicely, but I can relax in it, too. We have brought it along on our camping trips and easily been able to find spots to hang near our camper. I see more hammocks in our family's future! Thank you, Grand Trunk.

Easier Setup than Expected

This thing took about 5 minutes to put together...the first time I used it! Also I didn’t even expect the carrying case that came with it. Seems like a good quality case to either simply store or to transport the stand somewhere. Good stuff!!

Waiting to try it out at Hang-con 2020

Purchased to use as an under quilt at Hang-con 2020 in Florida in January. I've used heavier under quilts up in the northern territories and top quilts, so being a 40° rated bag and some of the temps hitting below, we'll see how it holds up. I'm a furnace when I sleep, so I'm not terribly concerned, and am bringing back up quilts. I look forward to the tests it'll go through.
