    Hello from Maryland

    Hi HF,
    I am brand new to hammocking. I got introduced to it by a climbing buddy of mine on a backpacking trip. He had an ENO and I found it so handy as a rocking bench and a clean place to sort out my gear.
    I recently bought 2 of those Yukkon mosquito net hammocks from woot a month ago. I then recently just bought a WB superfly tarp along with 2 sets of cinch buckles (Thanks to you guys and Shug ) and will use my climbing webbing as my suspension.
    I figured I'll use some tyvek envelopes at a groundsheet for my bag and standing on.
    I still haven't gone out for a hang yet, but am excited!
    Is there anything else that I am missing?

    Welcome from Southern MD. (but I am lucky enough to work in Rockville a handful of days a month)

    Sounds like you'll be ready for your first hang in style .... enjoy

    Welcome to the Forum, from Michigan.
    I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.


    When I see lovers' names carved into a tree, I don't think it's cute. I think it's strange how so many people take knives on a date.

    Hey Kevin! I'm from just down the road from you, grew up in Silver Spring. Although I live in Hyattsville now. If you want to get to a hang, we might could carpool to the MAHHA Spring Hang in April?

    What is the MAHHA and where is it? I dont think I can make it though because I'll be studying for an exam/ taking an exam around that time sadly.

    Welcome from gaithersburg. You really should try to make it to the MAHAA, even if just for a day.
