    NE Georgia Newbie

    Hi,
    I joined this forum about a month ago. I love it - learned lots about hanging. My son is attempting a thru hike on the AT starting this month. I plan to meet him for a week this summer.
    After lots of research I just scored a HH Backpacker with whoopie slings on the FS forum.
    I love this place!

    Welcome from next door in Cleveland. You and your son should come to the Raven Cliffs hang in a couple weeks.

    Another welcome from N.Ga.
    If you prepare for failure you will probably succeed.

    Welcome from middle GA. Best wishes for your son!
    *Formerly "kleinrider"; no longer own any Klein bikes, so figured a change was in order.

    Welcome aloft from a little farther south in McCormick, SC. Hope to see you at the Raven's Cliff Hang. I also wish your son well on his AT Thru hike.
