    USA, FL, Middleburg: Short Notice Unemployment Hang

    So, as a result of being unemployed (a transistory state), I actually have a Saturday-Sunday this weekend where I don't have any plans! So, I'm going to head up to the Black Creek Ravines conservation area by Middleburg, in order to field test my new pack for next week's 2nd Annual Hike & Hang. I'm throwing open the invitation to come for anyone who wants.

    Sorry about the short notice, but I should be up there from Saturday 3/9, around 2 or 3 in the afternoon to Monday 3/11 in the morning. Anyone wanting to come, feel free!

    It's a short two-mile-and-change hike in from the parking lot, and there's treatable water close to the campsite. There's a spot where we could go swimming about a mile and an half from the 'site, and there are several trails that are beautiful to walk throughout the conservation area.

    Hope to see youse folks there!

    Can't make the hike, but I like the title to your thread!
    I can actually figure out where this is located without doing a google search!
    Well done

    Thanks, Mike! I hope to see you at the Richloam hang!

    Testing out my new front pack/bike bag and the attachment for my MMP-inspired pack to the bike's rear rack this weekend, so I don't have to stop on the way down to Richloam. It's gonna take me long enough to bike that far without adding gear headaches to it...

    Wish I could have made this one. I need more notice to schedule my work around it. Currently I'm working Friday and Saturday night 10pm-3am and Monday 5:30am-5:30pm. Next time. Well enjoy your hang.

    Sorry, ofceb. If I'd had more notice, I'd've let you know ahead of time.

    Hope to see you at the next one!

    FLRider's next thread will be titled: how not to sneak up on someone who is packing protection in the middle of the night
