    New hanger in TN

    Hello there!

    I am a new hanger from TN. I have been away from camping for a long time and have recently decided I need more time in the woods. That being said I had originally planned to start back with a tarp tent style. Then I started researching hammocks and discovered that there can be much more than I expected. I have already learned quite a bit and hope to learn more as I progress. If you are in the area and want to do some backpacking let me know.

    Dave

    Welcome aboard, Dave. There are quite a bit of active hammockers from Tennessee on this forum. I would recommend going to any hammock hangs in the area to check out set ups, etc. Once you get off the ground, you will never go back.

    I have heard great things about Fiery Gizzard and Savage Gulf. I won't be able to make it this weekend but I would be happy to accept an invitation in the future. How is the backpacking the Cohuatta Wilderness area?

    It's a great area. I would definitely recommend going if you get the chance.
    Is it hang time yet?

    Welcome to the site. Take your time getting settled in here. Info overload is a real possibility. If you have any questions, just ask.
