    Smile Hello from TN

    My name is Chris and I live in Northeast TN. I really enjoy self-supported bicycle touring and camping along the way. Have always tent camped but recently started reading about hammock camping.

    I recently purchased a HH ULBP ASYM and a 3S Crowsnest (now a 3S Phoenix).

    This forum has been very helpful in getting some tips about hammock camping. Looking forward to trying out the hammock over the Christmas Holiday. Hopefully, I'll get my uq soon - don't mind waiting for top quality.

    Thanks for all the great discussions on HF!

    Hang

    I really would have liked to go to the Mount Rogers Winter Hang, but I have to work that weekend. I live just a little over an hour from Mount Rogers, VA.

    Have you heard of any other "hang" events near NE TN?

    Welcome to HF. Self supported bicycle touring and hammock hanging go together very well.
