    Hello from Elk County, PA

    I've not yet experienced camping in a hammock but, I am pumped! I've always wanted to camp in the winter and it's GREAT to see there is a group who has the same CRAZY dreams! So, I'm doing the research and preparing for the experience. I'm looking to learn to do it right! So, I'm looking for your guidance and your experiences to help me spend my money wisely, have a GREAT time, and meet new friends!

    Hi Toofies! Welcome from Lancaster!

    Try to go to the MAHHA hang, look it up here. It's at Pine Grove Furnace State Park Apr. 25th to the 27th. It'd be a good place to check out some rigs, and even try them. It would help give you an idea of what to look for.

    Again, welcome!

    Welcome from Philly.
    When I was a kid the only time we were in the house was to eat and sleep.
