Please use this thread to post your trip reports and photos!
Please post your best pics here!
Hmm...
Have fun gang!
Very serious. Pheonix has been an important part of Hangcon in the past, so we are in good hands.
Yep, Hangcon 2021 is a confirmed go! We have new blood continuing the largest hammock hang in the world! Pheonix6579 is the man!
Woohoo! Getting the band back together. Now, Olddog? FloridaRider?
There will be several vendors in attendance. We try and stress to them that Hangcon is a time for them to unwind, but many show off their wares and are eager to talk to prospective customers. Don't...
I have a couple of spare hammocks and an underquilt I can let her use.
Eric, find me when you get there, I have a propane hibachi grill you can borrow.
Days? I'm into hours... :lol:
Yes, sent out an email to all the vendors on my email list.
The Ocala portion of the Florida Trail is certainly one of its prettiest sections. Alexander Springs, Juniper Springs, and Hidden Pond are some of my favorite destinations.
We're still in the 90's over here, a cold front is on the way. A snowy Hangcon would be a sight!
Woo-hoo, glad to know my buddy Kettle will be there!
Gotta get to more of the bigger hangs, not that the Fall Texas Hang is small. :)
Yeah, I'll take that I-10 trail...
WOOHOO! This made my day. I have really missed my extended family, and Doe Lake!!! Lets see, only a 17 hour drive, so worth it!
A little birdie told me an announcement is coming soon... :)
Yep, Doe Lake Campground: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ocala/recreation/recarea/?recid=40231 In my humble opinion, the best campground to host a hammock get together in the US.
Have fun guys!
Only if the bears read the kiosk... :lol:
On that creepy note... Hehehe :lol:
Sunsetkayaker, Juan told me to post that if you had a spare kayak for me to use, that would be great!
Sorry for the double post.
Yep, I'm in the area Juan, never fear. Did you really think I would mess up my attendance streak? Gumbo is currently making me dinner, Hangcon, at least for me, has begun.
I can come get you Dutch, send me your flight info.
One thing that I would recommend, if no one has already, is to bring a camp chair or mat, especially for the Timberrr and Lilricky show aka the raffle.
This is one of the many reasons why I love these 2 people! Timberrr and Gumbo are some of the most giving and caring people on the face of the planet. Thank you guys.
Sorry to hear that you won't be in upper central Florida for Hangcon. South Florida is known for not having overnight camping sites or extensive trails. I only know of 2 options within 2 hours of...
No worries, this is a non-hosted campsite with private companies servicing it. Its USDA controlled, but not managed.
Yeah, we're trying to educate the Enchanted Rock rangers. Just remember to be friendly and follow their rules until they know how little impact hammock camping has on the campground.
Sorry to hear that buddy, hope to see you at Doe Lake at Hangcon '20!
Always room for another San Antonian! Speaking of which, I got to smuggle some Buckee's items into Florida. Maybe some more Beaver Nuggets.
Yeah, plenty of trees on the trail and lots of trees in the perimeter, but if you want to be in the main area, you would want to bring a stand of some sort.
According to the signup sheet so far, 80 people will be there on Thursday : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Rq8vHo3cFJwBDi1CcX35oGyv3uxr107vzaUcGBWLIVk/edit#gid=81249707
(Note to self, make sure Bobby gets the losing tickets this year)... :lol:
Nice looking Turtlelady/Turtledog stand!
I've been asked by several people on where River Forest Campground is, or how does one drive there. Here is an address that will get you there, along with Google driving instructions:...
Good to see CRO attending, looking forward to seeing those quilts you guys are famous for!
Good to hear Tensa is coming down, our cottage industries are always welcome at Hangcon! :)
Like I'm going to let that happen!
Wish my company was super cool, I had to bow out of the Texas Fall Hang. I WON'T miss Hangcon though....
Excellent! Looking forward to meeting the new face of JRB!
I'm never going to live down the popcorn incident, am I?
And we have KingsFord and Hotlips! We're getting the band back together :)
Saw the Special Event in January 2020 and was scratching my head. Good to know that we'll be back, but also really looking forward to Hangcon 2019! :) Wow, just saw the picture of the new screened...

A bit more shade throughout, a lot more scenic, especially if you take the side detour toward the sinkhole and cemetery.
