I have backpacked North Manitou a few times as a ground dweller, what an awesome place. I think it would be an awesome place to hang. I am not to sure that it would be real easy for most to get to plus it's not really open in late fall except for deer hunting. I would love to participate in a group hang in lower or western Michigan ... Something like Nordhouse Dunes, Grand Haven, Grand Rapids, Central Michigan, and even the Manistee River Trail. There are a lot of places in Michigan that would be great to do a "Hang" ...I am in the Southeastern part of the state so there's no where to go but up! ... :):)
