Plenty of trees for hanging. There might be one or two spots to fish, but not many unless you are willing to leave the trail (probably with a car). We're approaching my favorite time of year to...
In Boy Scouts, we always said that the 13th Scout law was, "A Scout is hungry". I've found that sentiment to pretty much apply to all outdoorsy types.
Here is a pretty lengthy discussion that you might find helpful:

Thanks for hosting us! I had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone, seeing all of the cool toys, and (of course) buying some new toys for myself.
It might work if the two layers were very loose, but both of my double layers are too tight to add an UQ between the layers. The down would all be compressed and the insulating properties would be...
Thanks for the complements on the pictures everone. Two months ago I bought my first camera that isn't a cell phone and I'm still haveing fun experimenting with it.
This is the first time in a few...
I took advantage of some extra vacation time and got out for my first solo - a short four mile hike and a quick overnight on the AT in Maryland. I got on the trail on Thursday afternoon and stopped...
Only an hour drive for me, and in the middle of a 5 day weekend. I'm going to have to try and make this. I better make up a shopping list...
For me, all of the dry items go into a large cuben fiber dry bag (Zpacks) that lines my entire pack. Anything wet or that I want easy access to goes into the pack, but outside the dry bag, or in the...
I must have ordered at the perfect time. Ordered a traveler 19 SEPT, received shipping notice the same day, on my doorstep 22 SEPT. Thanks for the super fast shipping! I'm now the proud owner of a...
I'm in Bel Air. I've been mostly a backyard hammocker since I got into it. I don't get out camping as much as I used to, and I've only had the hammock out on a real camping trip a couple of times. ...
I figured y'all would be on top of that sort of loop hole. I can't imagine that you get a ton of trolls trying to run up post counts for sales around here, but I'm sure every forum gets their share....
Does that really work here? Most forums that I belong to do not count posts in the "Introduction" section for that exact reason.
Do you go to school there? VT has an outdoor club that does hiking/backpacking trips. Even if you aren't a student, you might be able to hook up with some of the people in the club and get them to...
Great trip report! I really enjoyed the details about your gear. Thanks for taking us along.
I don't think post count determines intelligence or credibility, rather, post quality gives you some idea of who you are dealing with. By requiring 50 posts, the mods give the rest of us a chance to...
I have bought and sold things on several forums. All of my transactions have been completed using USPS money orders. There is some degree of trust involved, but I have found that most of the people...
I just got the sleeves for my superfly in the mail today. Great product, lightning speed, and great customer service! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kat to anyone.
Glad to hear you survived the storms. Where were you camping?
I was hunting just a little south of the Mason-Dixon in Baltimore Co. and I'm sitting there in my stand when I start to hear drops...
I bring a bagel to use as an edible scraper...by the time I'm done wiping the pot with that, its pretty clean. At that point, swishing some water around and drinking it isn't too bad.
I really enjoyed this mini-series! I haven't had time to get out in the woods for an overnighter since June, so living it through your video was great.
I was taught to clean pots like that while...
Hi all! I'm new to the hammock thing, but not to camping. I've been camping and backpacking since I joined Boy Scouts when I was 11. I've seen a few people using hammocks on trips before, but I...
