I'm in the general area. Forest Glen Preserve near Georgetown is a favored hiking/hanging place of mine, although the hanging bit needs to happen only in the primitive group camps. Putting things on trees is frowned upon in the campground (although they've got some nice wooded sites perfect for hanging).

Here are some videos about doing the backtracking trail there a couple of years ago...
