Sorry, I can't help with the longer legs. LOL. You could always carry Waders. I know people that do. Sometimes their feet stay dry. HahaOriginally Posted by TrailSlug
Thanks Jnunniv. I have that link bookmarked and use it before heading out. I've got to get longer legs for these cold crossings

No! It's at ? but years ago when I did not check it out.
Jnunniv it don't hurt to get your foot wet,but it helps knowing how to wear your waders before you cross.

Hey trailbug, hope to see you at the group hang in April! Jnunniv has a lot of info on the Sipsey, just pm him and I'm sure he could give you some good co-ordinates.
I'm new. What's a group hang? Is it fun?
I must have asked too many questions....
You should definitely take advantage of the hang. You will get first hand info and check out different setups to help you decide what you want. Do go cheap...unless you have to. You will only replace what you bought later, costing more money.
Welcome from Birmingham, AL!
I have not made it to a group hang at sipsey yet, but hope to perhaps for weekend of 4/7/17, but still some hurdles there for me.
I do a fair bit more kayak camping than backpacking in the past year, for what little I do anyway with what little time in the woods
Welcome and good luck!

Group hangs are a lot of fun it's where people of this forum that lives in and around alabama meets at Sipsey Wilderness/Bankhead area and just hang out eat (you won't leave hungry) and hike. It's a good time to check out gear and try out gear also. If you need to borrow something there probably someone that will have it to let you borrow it.

Welcome, Trailbug. I would say to poke around the forums for a bit. Many of your questions will be answered. If you get stuck or have a question that hasn't been addressed, we're available.
