It was a great time. Really glad to get out there and enjoy it. This is a great place to hike. NC has so many places to explore.

Finally got out, after almost 2 years, to have an overnight trip. Went with neighbor friend and his son. It was great trip. I really missed hanging. We managed to miss the rain, but did have...
Don't have the tadpole, but have seen it in action. If I was in the market this is what I would purchase.
This looks like the Marmot precip. I have this jacket, though the hood does not come off. Great jacket and hopefully someone will snatch it up.
Great report and beautiful country.
I have this same question. Except I have a square bag. Currently the weight is 5lbs and 2oz. I would like to cut the weight down. I have zero sewing experience, but the wife has a machine and I am...
Very nice. Looking forward to taking my son some day. He is not quite two yet, so maybe in another 2 years we will get out overnight together.
Great pictures and video. Thank you all for capturing the weekend. Looking forward to next year and hopefully a little longer stay.
Change of plans for me! As long as it is not raining too much (I can hear the laughter now) and my son is not sick I will be coming with my son. We moved our vacation. It will just be a day trip. ...
Wanted to make this a day trip but bringing my son to see grandma that weekend. Miss hanging with everyone.
I love the west. Your views are unbelievable. Thanks for the pics and story. I will be headed up to do a little brook trout fishing this upcoming weekend. Hopefully I will have some good pictures...
Thanks TP. This was our first trip to Crowders. We had wanted to go for some time, but just never have. My wife made the suggestion on Saturday and I'm glad she did.
I have been here many times. Very popular for us fly fishermen. Any place you chose will have great water and plenty of adventure for the kids. All the trails are easy to find and follow. Look...
At this point I am sure you have figured out I am not coming. I completely forgot to post that earlier! I hope everyone is having a great time. Turns out a good friend is having a graduation party...
Nice report and some quick hiking!
It was a great time. Thank you EJ. I hope you are doing well.
It's been a while, but got the family out for a quick Father's Day hike last Sunday. My son is 8 months old, so this was his first big trip. Great weather and he did an awesome job of riding along....
Thanks!
Looking forward to hanging out again some day. Hope you and the family are doing well. Sorry big orange would not let you off.
If he's lucky he won't. Buying clothes, hammocks and other gear is pain!
He is so far, thanks. We were on our way to the beach that day. Looking forward to bringing him to one of these one day.
No kiddin!
You live in a beautiful part of the country. I always love visiting out there. Videos are always welcome.
TP - great video. Always like seeing local guys take great trips.
Lucky man. My wife is not into camping unless it is in a cabin. It's the whole bathroom thing for her. Love Evernote too. Great way to share.
Can't wait to take my son on his first trip...at 8 months old it might be a while! Glad you got out. My favorite times with my dad were in the outdoors just he and I.
Just in case I can't make it and for a preview...
The hotter it gets the higher I go. I am headed above 4000' next weekend to try and beat the heat. When I lived in GA I would head for the highest mountain area I could.
Might be able to do what I did last year and hit up Friday night and head out Saturday am.
Nice trip. Sorry to hear about the failures and looking forward to the pictures.
Looking forward to the rest of the adventure and really glad to know that Tala made it out okay. Of course we are glad you made it out okay as well, but Tala was the main one...
+2..........
I am a fan of camo and this is a good looking piece of fabric!
I'm going to have to buy one now. That is a good looking tarp! Looking forward to the unveiling on the website.
I have the WBBB and FL has let me lie in his WLNO. I prefer the WLNO, but I am 6'7" so the additional length is great. I would follow his advice. He has good experience.
Awesome report. Know you had fun. Reminds me many of my fly fishing trips and trying not to tackle too much rodo.
Great report and love that part of NC. I have fished around there several times. I need to check out the northern part. I usually am south of Mt. Mitchell.
The smokies are awesome. I love living here in the southeast where we have the app mountains. They are an awesome place to hang. Many choices with tons of trees!
Just heard about your quest. I have not been on the forums for awhile. I am at home with a 4 month old, so see others travels makes me long to do things I can't. But your adventure is something I...
This tread is making me hungry. Hope it is a great time. I will be chasing gobblers in GA and mommy will only let me have some much time away. Look forward to the reports.
Wish I could have made this one. Thanks for the report. I was at the house watching the weather for the area and saw how cold it was going to be. Glad you had a good time. One day...
PS. I am still alive, but trying to get used to the whole fatherhood thing. One day I will return to the woods to hang. Just don't know when.
I was just remembering the gathering last year. Great time. Unfortunately I am on baby duty this Saturday pm. I won't be able to make it, but ya'll have a great time.
This might be the hang that gets me going again. By the spring my son will be old enough that he is sleeping through the night and mommy might let me have 1 night out!
Nice report. It was a beautiful weekend. And you husband seems like a great man. Glad you got to enjoy the weather!
EagleJ- Glad to hear that everyone is okay. That really stinks for the first timers not to get a chance to spend the night outdoors. Keep up the great work!
If you can make all that happen I might have to ask the wife for permission to come along. That would be a awesome group to hang with and way too much video!
Great video. One day you will make the whole thing. I will keep watching until then. By the way my son was born this past Thursday. Little sleep, but dreaming of him and heading on a hike. I am...
That is beautiful country. I hope to make it out there one day. Thank you for sharing!
Great story and pictures. I fished that area about 7 years ago. It is beautiful. You are a lucky man to live there.
I have this same combo. They work like they were made for each other. This is a great set up. If you need a primary or looking for a backup this would be it.
