    Hello From NJ

    Hello all

    I have been reading these forums for a few weeks and really enjoy the freindly feeling I get. I have been section hiking on the AT and as most people know in PA the ground is brutally rocky so I am going to try a hammock. I seem to be going a differant way than most though I am making my own gear. I am currently working on a bridge hammock after watching Griz's videos. Next will be a Tarp then a bug net. Lets just hope my rear does not meet the ground in a spectacular failure of sewing.

    I see more and more NJ type people signing on and I am hoping we can get more group hangs going. I look forward to being part of this new for me community.

    Welcome neighbor. There are two opportunities to check out enough gear to make your head spin. Search MAHHA and NJ Winter Hang.
