[QUOTE="casper, post: 629982, member: 562"] There is a lot of "romanticism" wrapped up in the term SWAG, but really the modern day "swags" are just mini tents, and some may call it evolution. Now, tents are really practical especially when the weather is not favorable.... but swags are not.... Yes! I've slept in a "real" swag (you know, the ones with no poles, no hoops, no pegs or guy ropes) at Knockwood near Woods Point, Victoria, just one night though, and it rained which became sleet and then it snowed - I was dry and warm until I needed to emerge at 6:30am :awful:. The swag I unhesitatingly donated to the Salvo's and replaced it with an old school 2 man apex canvas hike tent which is good in snow and I roll it up like a swag :o which leaves me thinking - why did I wrote this post :) Happy New Year for 2022 casper [/QUOTE]
