Below Solitude you would definitely be okay I would think!

I'm working in Grant Village, Yellowstone until August 12 so I could give you some pointers for that area of the park for sure. Also, stop in Bozeman and eat a place on Main St called The Roost if...

I just did a loop from Cascade Canyon to Paintbrush Canyon from the String Lake. Stopped for lunch at Lake Solitude. Definitely more snow than I had prepared for and not too many hanging spots higher...

Just got my weekends switched to Friday-Sunday, so I have 3 day weekends now! Would anybody be interested in meeting up to do a 1 or 2 night backpacking trip around July 25th or 26th? I'm open to any...

Looks like it! So far I've only gotten to go hang for about an hour by the Firehole River, but I'll be getting more camping in soon

I definitely packed my fly rod! Fishing season opened Saturday, but I haven't had time to go fishing yet. We haven't had any problems with moose yet, but the day before yesterday, I tourist got...

Glad to hear y'all had a good time coming out! I'm jealous about the wolf sighting!! So far that is the only animal I haven't seen yet

Glad you'll be able to make it! My dad rode out with me, but I had to drop him off at the Bozeman, MT airport so he wasn't able to get to go through the park. Enjoy the road trip!

Hit me up when you get here! PM me for my number and maybe I'll know some good places by then!!

Thanks again for all of the feedback! I will be living in Grant Village which is just a few miles north of Heart Lake so I should have no problem getting to that. Right now I am in Sioux Falls, SD...

Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely make a point to check those trails out!

I hope it doesn't happen any time soon!:scared:

Awesome! I'll be coming in through Mammoth also next Friday!

Tomorrow, I'm leaving Georgia to work and live in Yellowstone National Park for the summer. I plan on doing a lot of backpacking and hammocking while I'm there, but am not very familiar with the...

Thanks for the directions! Unfortunately I've had something come up and can't go yet. I'll have to make a point to go soon though.

Lately, my mom has been trying to get me to take her on a day hike around Cheaha State Park or Coleman Lake. She is really wanting me to take her somewhere with a waterfall but I generally go to...

Sorry for the late reply, but thanks for all of the feedback and especially the pictures! I had already made my mind up on getting these, but was just curious as to how they would pack down. Thanks...

How small does the Hammock Gear Incubator 0 and the Burrow 0 pack down? I'm looking to order both and am just curious as to how small I will be able to pack them down. Thanks!

I'm almost positive that I will be going to Upper Chattahoochee for some trout fishing and camping if anyone would care to join. I'll most likely be going March 30th and staying for 3 or 4 days. It...

I would definitely be down for a trip to McDill Point sometime. I love that place!

Thanks! I'll definitely make a point to get to the fall hang. Can't let myself miss 3 in a row:D

Wish I could make it, but I'll be heading out to work in Yellowstone on May 10th and won't be back until late August.

I apologize for not letting anybody know sooner, but I haven't had time to get on HF lately to let you know I can't make it. I hope to be able to make it to the next one though!

Scratch my name off the list if it was on there.. I've had something come up. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the next one!

I'll definitely keep in mind raising the bed up to hang the hammock underneath if it doesn't get better soon. Last night the bed reminded me of tent camping with no pad. Tonight is freshman...

Haha I'm hoping not to get expelled this early, but if it gets me back to my hammock, it may be better:lol:

There's not a way to hang it in the room unfortunately. The room is only 13x18 ft and there are two of us living in there. We can't take any furniture out, so I couldn't rearrange it to fit a hammock...

Saturday, I moved into my dorm at Jacksonville State University, and the first thing I noticed was crappy beds. Classes don't start until Wednesday, and there has been nothing to do so far, so I have...

Just thought that I would say that putting something under my legs has seemed to solve the problem. Thanks to everybody for the help!

"The Gorge" is a nickname my grandfather gave to a trout fishing trip my family does every summer in the Upper Chattahoochee National Park. Since it's the highlight of my year, I couldn't think of...

+1 on the Hatchet series! I haven't read them in a while so that might be my next set of books to read. I just finished A Walk In the Woods by Bill Bryson, a funny book about his experiences on the...

Thanks for all of the quick responses! I have the foot end raised about 6-8in higher so I don't think it's that. I have had the same ridgeline set on the hammock for several months and kept the sag...

The past few nights I've slept in my hammock, I've woke up with the back-right side of my right heel having this sort of "tingling" sensation. It's a little like when your foot goes to sleep but not...

I'll definitely make a point to be there. Scratch that last comment, I'm done with classes by 11:00 on Fridays so I can make it to the whole thing!

I'll definitely try to come to the group hang if I don't have anything going on. I have yet to hike anything from Turnipseed

One of my friends and I each have a regular Sol and neither of us have had any problems with ours. I don't know about them as a whole though

Thanks for the suggestions, I ended up doing about two miles on the Cave Creek trail and stopping near a creek because it was so dang hot and humid and it was the first place that wasn't covered in...

I'm going hiking in Cheaha State Park tomorrow for just an overnight/2-day trip. Are there any specific trails in the ~4 mile range, other than McDill Point, that y'all would recomend? I love McDill...

Okay thanks! I think I'll get the 20 then. About how much more warmth does each ounce of overfill add?

I think I'm leaning more towards getting the incubator. Where I live, the coldest weather I go camping in is generally the low 20s with the occasional wind chill bringing it down to the mid to upper...

I will try to post pictures as soon as I'm able to get it but being a poor college student is making the process of scratching up the money a slow task!

Thanks for all the feedback! I've got to scrape up the money but then I think that's my next hammocking investment:D

I am looking to get a cold weather underquilt for my ENO Doublenest. I want to get a warbonnet eventually but I need an underquilt worse than I need a new hammock. I was wondering if any or you had...

In the beginning of June my family and I are going to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons for my senior trip. We have left a day open for a day hike, but are unsure where we want to go b/c none of us...

The first few times I went camping, I heard coyotes and they freaked me out for a little bit. Two weekends ago though, I was laying in my hammock and a mountain lion started screaming from only 20...

Count me in!

I've had a few up close encounters with bears, but nothing where they have been aggressive towards me like that!

Hairbear's post about the strange sounds got me thinking about this and I was wondering what is your scariest encounters in nature? Mine would be last summer when I was fly fishing near the Upper...

When I was around 10/12, I was squirrel hunting in the woods behind my house. I heard some strange sounds that sounded like a young animal but were like nothing I had ever heard before. I went...

I was thinking the exact same thing...
