Hi All,

I love this site. I've learned many bits of advice every time I visit.

I need to get out and hike for health reasons and got hooked on videos of hiking, backpacking and hammocking.

I've read "The Ultimate Hang" twice, watch an assortment of YT vids, like Shug (and The Maple King), Dave at ReallyBig Monkey1, Ben at Living Survival, Joe Robinet, and Bryan at Survival on Purpose. If anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to post them.

I'm getting kitted out right now. I'm finding that being 6'4" can be challenging for equipment.

I grew up in Central NJ. I live in Lower Bucks County in PA. I plan to practice day hike in Tyler State Park when it gets warmer.

Kind Regards,

Jim
