    Any Annual Minnesota or Western Wiscosin Hangs?

    Just wondering if there are any annual Minnesota hangs?

    I would also consider traveling to twin cities area or western parts on Wisconsin... I'm in Brainerd, MN & basically don't want to spend an entire day driving, 3-4 hrs would be fine.

    If nobody has anything planned, then I may look into starting one, if there are enough people interested.

    Interest?
    Ideas of locations?
    Comments?

    Yep, there are quite a few. Here is the Spring Northern hang which is already being planned now.

    We also have a fall one and there are some people who do un-official group hangs in Mn too.

    Here is a video of last years Fall Northern Hang.

    That looks perfect, I will have to watch for the dates on this, I was wanting to do the Border Route Trail in the fall... would that be an option or do you usually have this in the same area all the time?

    Whats the word so far on the spring one, any dates or places picked yet? Being the new guy here, it would be great to meet some of you & learn from the different setups people have.

    I'm in Brainerd as well. Just got back from the annual SHTA meeting up in Finland Mn. I have health issues so short distance hikes work better for me.

    Keep an eye out for the third annual "Frozen Butt Hang" in early January. It is usually somewhere along the SHT, I believe.

    Oh, did I mention that temps are usually below zero?
