Wanda and I will be there. Looking forward to seeing everyone. I think the end of Feb and the first week or two in March is bigfoot crazy time. Bringing my camera.

You will be missed. You will be surprised at what we can come up with in place of a campfire. We managed something last time and I'm sure we will come up with a legal suitable replacement for a...
Wanda, Steve, and I will be there about mid afternoon Thursday. Brandon, Charlie and two friends will be up late Friday. As always, it will be a fun time.

Great video! Gave me something to watch on this 12 hour day at Emory Winship Cancer Institute. No side effects from new medication for. If this keeps up, I will be back in the trees in no time....
Wish Wanda and I could join you on this hang. Have to be in Atlanta early Monday.

Just returned from the Sipsey Hang in the Alabama Bankhead National Forest. It was a great hang and I made friends with Cajunracer/Barry. Barry is a representative of Tensa Outdoor. I recently...
It was great to meet our old friends on Wednesday and making new friends during the hang. Tammy/Flower Girl took our family group and Lazyboy on a hike to Parker Falls while the rest of the group...
Found out today Charlie is coming. He has a lot of new stories for us. Ashley & Wanda.

Wow, Summer is almost here. This will be my last camping trip to Bankhead until Fall. Will be moving to higher elevations during the Summer.

I do very little cold weather hanging, but my 20 degree underquilt and 40 degree top quilt has served me well down to at least 25 degrees. I have used the 20 degree underquilt in mid Summer in North...

Fixed! Looks like it was trouble on my side. I was using my phone and I was not signed in to the forum.
Did not see you already entered us all.

Looks like it is set on view only. I can't enter anything to the form.

I am the broke owner of 8 hammocks, most of them are from Dutch. My two favorite and most conformable are my 11-foot Dutch and my ENO JungleNest. I recently ordered a Mt. Washington 3 underquilt and...
Don't eat the "Hate Beans", but the beans have become a tradition. I vote to have them. I know there will be at least two stoves there.

Steve, Wanda, and I will be there sometime Wednesday. Looking forward to a great weekend.

Alabama Sipsey hang April 26, 27, and 28. Rumor has it a preacher from Birmingham will be at the hang. He is supposed to have everyone sign a contract. You know, like the contract to America. It...
What about the gator turtles that roam that part of the Sipsey. There is a rumor that they like human tongue. I say Jim was very lucky or spent the night in a bar and had to come up with a good...
Will someone, who knows now, put up a sign in sheet? It does help with food and supplies. Nice to know apx how many will be attending and if they plan on cooking for the group or just for themselves....
I was 12 when Daddy carved me a toothpick out of one. I refused to use it.

Alabama Sipsey Hang, April 26, 27, & 28. Warning: Treat your equipment and hiking clothes, ticks are out in force in the Bankhead N.F..

If you can't come hang, come and visit. Someone may be able to show you a hammock that will keep you off the ground.
Alabama Sipsey Hang April 26, 27, & 28. Was at Brushy Lake over the weekend. It was a great time. Looking forward to the hang. Hope I'm not at Emory in Atlanta being evaluated for bone marrow...

Holmes Chapel Falls. One of many found in the Bankhead N.F. and the Sipsey Wilderness. Thomas has already planned a hike for our next hang. For those who want to break off on their on, feel free to...
Welcome, you should enjoy the Sipsey.

Tammy will like that. I'm feeling better and if able, I will help with some of the cooking. We will have chicken and dumplings after the hike for sure.

Biker Bob is giving you good advice. I would call any state park before planning to hang hammocks.
Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
Try Ft. McAllister State Park near Savannah. I called and a ranger started they were hammock friendly.

I'm in with 4 people and probably 4 new hammock hangers. Ashley
April 12 - 14 will work for us. A week after my treatments and I do not have any appointments until the 15th. The next weekend 26 - 28th will also work. Ashley
I like to thank everyone for all your responses. All of them offered good advice, but basically it all boles down to be on your guard no matter where you camp. It is a shame our country has so many...
It will soon be time for Squidbilly to announce our Spring Hang at Wolfpen Camp in the Bankhead National Forest, Alabama. Before he announces the hang, I would like to bring up an issue for...
Plans have changed and I am sorry to report that my group will not be able to come to this hang. Maybe next hang. Ashley
Wanda, Steve, and I plan to be there. Let me know if you need any extra equipment. Ashley
As always, a great video. Brought back a lot of great memories of all my hikes in the Sipsey. Wanda (my wife) and I camped just off 200 (Borden Creek Trail) back before we found our love for hanging....
Forgot to inform you to check Sunrise Grocery for maps and books on the local area. They also have fried pies, peanuts, and firewood. The firewood is a bargain. Ashley
You did not state the dates you are planning your trip, but make sure you check the weather and bring the appropriate clothing and sleep setup. Most Spring breaks in this part of the country are in...
Prayers for Jim and his family.
To me this was the best hang we have had. The people and the new large trap were great. John and Claudia were superb cooks and first-class camp companions. All the food (gumbo, hate beans, soups,...
Thomas, I have two extendable sticks and some stakes I can bring. :cool:
I love German hotdogs!!!!!!
We plan to be at Wolfpen between 3 and 4:30 pm on Wednesday (Tomorrow October 17, 2018). I think John and Claudia are coming in earlier. We plan to camp on the north end so the folks who stay up late...
I will be happy to chip in. Ashley
Skippy, mountain man breakfast in the Dutch ovens it will be. Ashley
Wanda and I will be there. I have already got the OK to skip or postpone my treatments for October, so I should be in top form. The treatments are what make me feel so bad. Wanda wanted to rough it,...
