    Hello from n Georgia!

    Hi ya'll! Just wanted to introduce our group. I am just getting back into backpacking after taking 25 years off to have 10 children.... My 16 and 12 yo girls and my 7 yo son are joining me on this grand adventure! We have decided to give the whole hammocking thing a try. So any advice you can throw at us would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome from the upstate of SC. I recommend the book "The Ultimate Hang." Great book to give you the basics. Also recommend Shug's videos. Shug is high energy and entertaining as you teaches you about hammocky things.
    Keep movin', keep believing and enjoy the journey!
