Has anyone had any experience hammock camping in this park. I read somewhere that they do not allow things to be suspended from the trees.
I'm in the planing stages of a scout camp out, just...

I had a great time Friday night, at my first Hoosier Hang. My buddy and I had to leave early Sat., Very happy to put names to faces. I would also like to thank whoever left me a little alcohol...

Well I made my Turtledog stand this weekend, and it ended with failure. My 15' top rail bent on me, to almost 90°. It sat me gently on the ground. I think the failure was a combination of my...

July 22, 2013 is
Hammock Day
Picture this: it's mid-July, the sun shines and you rest on a hammock, completely relaxed. This is the essence of Hammock Day.

Today’s reason to celebrate reminds us...

Sorry I cant make it, I am camping though at The Romp Bluegrass Festival. Have Fun

Next week I'll be spending most of the week Listening to Blue grass music, and hanging in my hammock. I'll be hanging around the ROMP Bluegrass music festival, In Owensboro, KY. Last year I saw...

I use small figure 9's and Nite Ize RR-04-50 Reflective Cord. It worked on my kelty tarp, so I just transferred it over to the tadpole. I also use msr ground hog stakes, and figure 9's and tie outs...

Looks good, now I need to hit the trail. This replaces a Kelty Noah 12. This cuts 1lb out of my pack.

I'm in too. my boys would love that. Our elf is taking a bath in marshmallows this morning.:laugh:

When I saw this deal, I thought that will be perfect for my boy's first hammock. He was so excited to get it. Now he keep talking about needing an underquilt for it. He's 6 and already has the...

Thanks for the input, I am now a proud owner of a Leighlo 3/4 length, 30° under quilt. I test hung it the day I received it. It only took a couple of mins to get it dialed in. Now to do an...

Wow, thanks for opening my eyes to the other venders out there. Now just to compare specs and prices. I look forward to other comments and opinions.

Thanks

I was wondering what everyone's opinions are on these two underquilts? There very close on price. The HG has 900 fill where the JRB has 800. Just looking for the best bang for my buck. I'm...

Take me off the list, I have a family camp out that same weekend. I will eventually make it to a Hoosier hang.

I too would be interested if the dates fit my schedule.

I live close to Evansville, IN. I would be open to a group hang.

I had a great time, great area and trail. I'll go back, hopefully without the rain.

Hey gang. I took a hike on the Two Lakes Trail, In Hoosier National Forest. I hiked about four miles on Friday, after work. I decided to stop when the rain started, and set up camp. Here are a few...

The 12' Kelty, Looks to me to have great coverage. I made the mistake of buying the 16' Kelty, I don't know what I was thinking, that thing is HUGE. I saw it was the same price as the 12' so I...

Here is my version of this stand, w/ my ENO Double nest and 12' Kelty Noah tarp.

I was informed I can't come out and play. My wife has to work that weekend, so I have to watch the kids. I'll keep an eye out for next year.

Thanks Mule & Reckon. That's not that far away. I went to Yellow Wood SF Last year for a campout. I've wanted to get to that section of HNF. Now If I can work it into my schedule.
Thanks
-John

I'm also a Hoosier, and I'm interested in this hang. Where in Indiana are you all thinking of having this hang. I live in Southern Indiana, near Evansville, and do a lot of hiking in HNF.

I found this hammock @ Big Splash Adventure in French Lick, IN.

Thanks again for all the recommendations. I'll definitely take a look at the night owl. I like that it has a space for your sleeping pad to slide in. How is the width vs. a double nest? As far as...

Thanks for the replies. Its good to here I'm heading down the right path.

Hello all, My name is John, and I am a newbie. I have been reading from the side lines for a few months. I even tried my hand at a DIY hammock, with embarrassing results. I'm what some would call...
