    Hello for Chesterfield, VA

    Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I am just getting into the site and am looking forward to gaining some much need knowledge. I am a life long fisherman, camper, outdoors person, whatever you want to call it, but I have only tried hammock camping once and it was a terrible failure. So I am looking forward to learning the right way to go about things. Thanks to everyone for a great site.

    Welcome from Denver!

    Hammocks, while way more comfortable and versatile, do have a longer learning curve. The info here will hopefully be very helpful.

    I'd also recommend Shug's hammock videos:

    And dehoja's book, The Ultimate Hang:
