I will be there Friday around lunchtime. My son will be tagging along as well.

Looking forward to a trip in the forest!

I haven't been out since last fall. I'm going to try and make this weekend. The weather is starting to change and I feel the urge to get out there...

Always a good time! Haven't been out all season and starting to get the itch. Hope to see some new faces.

I'm set to arrive Thursday around five. I wish the temps were going to be colder but I'll take what I can get rain or shine. Speaking of shine, I picked up a pint of Apple Pie today from TN. Will...

Awesome! I was wondering when somebody was going to fire this thing up. Count me in...

Had a great time! I'm excited about how warm I stayed at night. I'm ready to go colder. The food was great too! I don't think I'll eat for a week. Thanks Trail Medic for setting it all up. I...

So, will some of the food listed be available Friday night? I can't imagine us trying to eat all that Saturday... Just trying to figure out what to bring to supplement and fill the gaps so to speak.

Mule, I'm shooting for leaving around noon if that works with your schedule.

I just added my contribution to the spread sheet, twice baked potato casserole. I'll put it in a crock pot and bring an extension cord just in case. I noticed that Yogi actually signed up to bring...

Sounds like the amenities may spoil us! I hope to be there before sundown Friday. Save me a tree Trail Medic...

Not a bad idea Mule, but I'm not sure how early I can get off work Friday. I will keep in touch and let you know as we get closer.

Awesome! Look forward to it. Maybe some of you more seasoned guys could bring a little extra gear to help out some of us less seasoned hangers, in case we need it. Maybe there could be some...

Check with Trail Medic, I believe he has his contact info.

It was great seeing every body! I too would like to thank all the vendors for donating products. Zach my friend, you did an incredible job pulling it all together! Especially when it came time to...

Most make a trip back to the car and restock for Saturday night. Some bring small lunch-size coolers for food and drinks etc. Others go all the way to town. You pretty much see it all and usually...

Usually water is available near site. However, I leave a couple gallons in the truck just in case.

Awesome! Can't wait to try out my new quilts from JacksRBetter. Looking forward to seeing everyone too. Thanks for putting it together Zack!

I'm open to any date or place.

I will get in some time Thursday night. If I have to work that Sunday, I may need to leave Saturday afternoon. Can't wait to get back out there...

I'm good with with whatever weekend. I have a different work schedule now and work every other weekend. If it falls on my work weekend, I will come and go a day earlier than most. As it relates to...

Oh yeah, we are out there! As already posted you missed the Halloween Hang. Keep a watch out, plenty of guy's go year-round. I'm only geared for three season myself, but I will get year-round...

Oh yeah! Since many were confusing with someone else, Trail Medic gave me a new trail name. It's now "Stitch". Thanks Trail Medic!

Another fantastic hang! It was great to get to know some of you a bit better! Time went by way too fast! The weather was perfect, the pizza was top-notch (Thanks Jake!) and spirits were high...

Yeah, I'm brining 4 cups of cheese and some bacon.

How will you secure your bike when at the hang? I would be nervous to leave my bike at the lot...

Last year this time the water was pretty low and silty. So, on day two I went back to my truck and brought a gallon of water in.

Gathered_stones I will bring a four cup bag of cheese for the cause. I will also have some pre-cooked bacon on hand as I use it to jazz up my instant potatoes.

On a side note peeps, for dinner...

Termite, I plan on getting there about the same time Friday, eleven or twelve. It depends on how much time I waste at REI. Does anyone know if Gatheredstone has posted a sign-up for pizza...

Crinoid, welcome to the forums! When I first started I rocked the big blue tarp, as seen in my Avatar. I went to my first hang last October and met some great people! Everybody is friendly and...

Thanks for taking the lead Billy! I look forward to seeing everyone again...

If the stars and the moon are aligned just right, I might be able to make this hang. Earlier this season I made a new extra large 60x120 double layer "fat boy" hammock and silnylon tarp. It turned...

I too suffer from knee pain from time-to-time, especially on long hikes. I found a knee brace helps as well, but I only use it when I absolutely need it though. I don't want to become too dependent...

markr6, even though daytime temps were in the high 80's, it was quite comfortable during the day. From nine in the morning until about five at night there was a steady breeze coming off the lake...

Rolloff, I did the GRT to PT in and out. According to the map it was 4.7 miles and after I saw two of the biggest snakes I have ever seen, I wasn't about to go doing too much bushwhacking. At least...

My trip was hot and muggy, but I still had a great time! Two storm fronts came through Friday and put my DIY hammock and Tarp to the test. No leaks and everything held up well. Saw Farmer Ron and...

Maybe another time Eville. Looks like it will be hot and wet this weekend, but I hope to make the best of it.

Sounds good Eville, I hope you both can make it. Looking at the weather, there may be a few storms to deal with, but that won't stop me. Just let me know, I'm heading down early Thursday.

Hey friends! After many months and some long hours, I have completed my Bachelor's Degree. I am going to celebrate by hitting the trail for a few days. I was introduced to the HNF last year during...

Hate to do this, but I have to pull out. I had so much fun last Fall and have looked forward to the Spring hang all winter. Unfortunately, some gear I ordered has been slow to arrive. In addition...

Put me down. I can't wait! I'm going coo coo for cocoa puffs between work and a double coarse load with school.

Understandably, you have hit a rough spot along the trail. Take it one blaze at a time, while keeping the destination in sight. Your spirit may be down, but you are still in the fight! Stay strong...

I recently utilized a poncho liner and reflectix, along with 30 degree sleeping bag at the Hosier Halloween Hang. The first night temp was 23 degrees and second night 27 degrees. The key is to have...

Great pictures Mule!

Great Video River Joe! You make a mean pot of Beans!

What a blast! It was really great to meet everybody this weekend. I have seen videos of past hangs and felt like I knew a lot of you already. You all are very welcoming. Big thanks to everyone...

I would like to go Thursday, but don't think I can make it happen. I will most likely be there Friday morning sometime. I might need some GPS coordinates from the parking lot. You know, X marks...

I'm good with bringing my own food too. I'll take part in a raffle if more are interested. Just let me know what the parameters are. Looking forward to this trip!

Too funny! I get the point...

Great video Bonsaihiker! I am a big fan of your work! I've seen a couple of your videos now and can't wait to get out there and experience it for myself. I look forward to meeting you and the...
