    Hello from West Michigan!

    Hey all! I am originally from the coast of Lake Michigan and I have been hammocking for about a year now doing one to three night trips and am starting to get more and more into it. Looking forward to learning a lot from everyone and having some awesome adventures!

    Well, welcome. I'm from the grand rapids area. Lots of good info here. I recommend attending a group hang...there is a great big one in the fall in Yankee springs, by gun lake. There is also a smaller one in the works for June. Lots of good people and hammocks of course!!

    Welcome from Hudsonville. Echo...echo...echo...
    I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.


    When I see lovers' names carved into a tree, I don't think it's cute. I think it's strange how so many people take knives on a date.

    Hello fellow West Michigander! I just received my first hammock in the mail yesterday. Excited to get started in this new world of hanging.

    Also...a few of us will be hanging June 12-14 at Deep Lake Rustic Campground in Yankee Springs. Drop by for a visit, or stay a while and hang.
