DeSoto Falls?
I would be interested depending on time/location. I've been to Burrell's Ford at least a half dozen times. Never been to Raven's Cliff.
"The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can.
Pursuing it with eager feet
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say."
~Bilbo Baggins - LotR
I don't know of any trail campsites up here that can take as large a number of tree hangers than Raven Cliff.
Interested as well!
Interested also
DeSoto might work, I bet the campground will be pretty much empty and I think I remember there being a lot of trees, didn't pay attention to how hammock friendly they were though. We may all have to pay as well, if so I think it's $8 per site.

The trees at the site by the bridge above Burrell's Ford are getting pretty dead. Old4hats said there was a nice site up the trails a little ways. Does anybody know anything about another good site up there?
Keep movin', keep believing and enjoy the journey!
