    Hi all. My name is Craig.
    After spending many moons on the ground, I finally borrowed a friends gear and hit the trees. I dont think I'm ever going back to the tent. With all my other friends hanging, the lighter pack weight, and more comfortable sleep, I wonder why it took me this long! Looking forward to my BB hammock and MJ tarp set to get back out there. I've only packed in Michigan so far but look forward to trips wherever they may be. Peace all
