    Getting back into it

    Greetings,
    I'm looking to get back into hanging, and naturally my investigations led me here. I live in Minnesota and look forward to getting back in the saddle so to speak. I enjoy canoeing and hiking and like to combine them with camping often.
    I still have my old cheapie jungle hammock that I got about 13-14 years ago at Gander Mountain, but I'm not exactly as light as I once was...
    I plan to resurrect that for the kid and then get something updated for myself before our next outing.

    Welcome from the PNW!

    You might think about becoming a donating member, as they have a bike packing forum & a paddling forum too.

    It seems like information overload...but wanting to be informed is what brought me here.

    Welcome back, the information on this forum is phenomenal! One word of caution, ADDICTION. Dutchware is the bling of choice.
    Every hike begins with the first step and ends with the last one, it is all the steps in between that create all the memories.
