PA>2014 Spring MAHHA April 25-27th Official Planning Thread

[pinballwizard]

My plan as well. I'll be coming from a trout fishing trip and plan/hope to be out of the woods in time to pick up the wife and make this.
I have space 35 reserved - incase of foul weather I can offer to shelter 4 or 5. This will be DW and my 1st group hang - so be kind:>)

Well, this is only our second group hang, but I can tell you with confidence after our experience at the first, kindness is not in short supply at these group hangs. We didn't even make it out of the car before Oh No introduced himself to us to make us feel welcome, and then Knotty took us on a tour to find the best available trees because it was getting dark when we arrived. Gear was lent, skills were shared, bread was broken, and friends were made... yeah, we know the kindness from forum members.

Also, what's DW? Da Wife?

Also, what's DW? Da Wife?

Darling Wife. And DH is Darling Husband. But Da Wife works, too

[Lamboy]

Just don't invite both the GF that knows and the GF that doesn't. There might be trouble if you do.

HAHAHA too sharp. Don't worry I learned long ago that I can only handle one boss at a time

Besides I would like this to not be my last voluntary hang if you get my drift.

I have an update on the Post hike Northbound out of MAHHA here if anyone is interested.

This will be my first group hang! I'm pretty excited!

I'm just in the initial phase of researching hammocks. I think this would be a great opportunity to see different setups and get gear recommendations. I would only be able to spend the day either Friday or Saturday. First can I come to learn? Second what day would be best to get the most exposure to different setups. I'm just south of Hancock me about 1.5 hour drive for me. Thanks.

That would be awesome if you showed up Saturday.
you are more than welcomed, anyone interested in hammocks is encouraged to drop by and spend some time with us.
That is how I learned to love the hammock way of hiking and camping.

See you Saturday. Thank you very much.

If your not staying overnight because you dont have gear then i suggest you pick up a $12 dollar table cloth hammock and i am sure someone will help you whip the end and loan you a set of whoopies for the night, probably even a tarp, show up friday and spend the night, its a great experiance that you will be glad to be a part off. members are more than willing to help out a new hanger, this way you get the full experiance and by the end of day saturday you will most likely know what you want to buy for yourself.. I thought i had it all figured out until my first hang and it was quite an eye opener

Ty Zilla. Might come up Friday pitch a tent. Exactly what I looking for. I keep going back and forth based on what I read between a bridge and gathered end hammock. Hopefully learn and spend money the best way the first time.
