    PNW Hammock Immersion Hang July 14th

    I figured I'd start out the trip report thread. Not many visitors to the immersion hang, but we did get some funny looks and questions from some potential converts.

    Original thread is here.

    Lovely weather and I got to hang in a bunch of different hammocks, including taking a nap in a glorious 72" DangerBird.

    More pictures and a video will be forthcoming I'm sure. For now, here's a picture of my DIY rig.

    Yep. This is at the campground. I hung on the far edge of our campsite, overlooking the entrance. After dark it got too windy and there was an annoying sound of two dead trees rubbing together so I moved closer to the rest of the group.

    Nice shots! I'm glad I didn't try to take my camera out on the lake, considering the number of times I capsized!

    Hey guys. I got pulled into a yard project this weekend, so I didn't quite finish the video.

    Will try to get it posted today or tomorrow.

    Apologies.

    I will wrap it up Monday. Sorry for the delay. Had some other priorities come up that thwarted completion.
