    Greetings from Seattle

    Hey Everybody,
    I am an avid backpacker but I'm pretty new to hammock camping. I found that I was lugging around my eno doublenest pretty frequently for a comfortable place to hang out at camp, so I figured I might as well save on the shelter weight and just sleep in my hammock. I picked up a warbonnet traveler (1.7 sl) and an edge tarp for my backcountry setup. I'm looking for a great place to hang this weekend within a couple hours drive of Seattle. Does anybody have any good suggestions? Thanks a lot.

    Hey, welcome to the forums from NE BC! Went to Whidbey Island a few years ago, good farmers market and lots of nice trees to hang from!

    Cheers
