Jazilla is going to “run” the raffle again this year, but several of us have received vendor donations. Who would you like to talk to?

Too many choices out there. Everyone has their favorite for many different reasons. I suggest using what you have right now. Then, during the Hang weekend check out what everyone else has and get a better idea of what you might look for in a setup. Look at all the offerings on-line in the meantime. I have an ENO DoubleNest with the ENO tarp and bug net but looking to get a Geaux hammock since it’s longer and should give a better/flatter lay.
I have an UnderGround Quilts “Zeppelin 20” underquilt.

This answer is spot on. There will be lot's to compare at the hang. Buying one from how the picture looks will get you a box full of loaners hammocks and an empty bank account.

Hi, Planning to attend for first time. I have a questions. My understanding is that there are limited camp sites, so what happens if I get there and all the sites are taken? Are there other areas nearby for hanging?

If I headed out immediately after work Friday, I would get there around 6:30. Do you think I could set up before dark? I’ll try to practice before then, but I’m wondering if I should just wait til Saturday morning?

Most official "sites" with a table and fire ring have many trees and usually have multiple hangers.
I don't think we've had anyone without 2 trees to hang from in the past 2 years.
Most in our group would be more than willing to share their site's trees with another hanger.
And for the record, it's a national forest and "dispersed" camping is allowed in most areas, and there are many many trees in the areas leading into the campground area.
So, I would say you won't have an issue finding a couple trees to accommodate.
We look forward to having you there!

If you show up at night plenty of people with lights to help. It’s always a good idea to have a headlamp anyway.

Thanks for your prompt response.
