We were going to camp across the country. Many areas without trees. But stayed in the plentiful-treed-east.
We would consider a drive to meet with someone traveling thru the NYC area to go to a hang.
This is a very cool portable hammock setup for hangers without trees.
I am not going to any hang currently.
BUT . . . if you know someone who is traveling this way perhaps we could arrange a transport meetup.
Perhaps from this NYC area to PA hang . . . 2018 Fall...

Two antenna pole bags for carrying. And basic hardware.
OlTrailDog,
Thanks for the heads up.
The thread is in and was made in the for sale forum, but I see that the FS has not shown.
Have contacted the administrator.

Spring MAHHA group hammock hang
Is Letchworth Trail in a state park or a DEC forest or campground ?
Apparently this is only a campground situation; the answer is probably it is not allowed.

This is the very open setup that we use in the campground.

Good examples to show in varied sites. Just...
Good comment for them to read. Keep the comments and pictures coming.
It is very curious.

Thank you Speedogomer, that is a well worded petition.

You have expressed the situation clearly.

Expect to arrive Friday afternoon.
Upon arrival : How do we pick a location with the assigned sites?
Did not attend last year, before we just picked two available trees.
How is it done ?
Looking forward to this.
Working on it.
Hey Stokes Hangers !
Thanks mrcheviot for spearheading the hang; or is that knife edging.
Loved all the knife show and tell and handling and sharping.
Wonderful visual hang report Ron.

doogie,
Are you still planning on the MAHHA southbound pre-hike?
Thoughts of pre-hike from Boiling Springs have gone from daydreaming to playing with my gear.
I am getting ready.
