    Thought I would introduce myself

    Hi fellow hangers!

    Came across this forum only a few days ago, and it already has answered a lot of questions for me.

    I'm new to hammock camping, but not camping. I have camped since I was a young boy, and in the past year I started backpacking when ever I get a break from classes. I have hiked about 20 miles total on the AT.

    Just got a hammock for Christmas after researching them and wanting one for quite some time now. Current setup is an ENO single nest hammock. I haven't made up my mind on a fly for it, but I'm still looking.

    Welcome to HF, mtbkr5.

    There are a ton of nice tarps available these days. Have fun deciding!

    BTW, there are also quite a few fellow hangers fairly close-by to you...
