    Hello from Northern Minnesota

    Hello everybody!

    New hammock owner here. looking at trying it out. been watching all the youtube videos I can learning about them over the last year. I finally pulled the plug on a cheapo hammock on Amazon to see if it suits me! Up here in the Northern parts of Minn-E-Soda, we still got lots of snow on the ground and temps barely getting above freezing finally it may be a while before I get out and try it out. but it'll get here eventually!


    Thanks for the wealth of knowledge here!

    Hello and welcome from Marietta GA. Spring has sprung down here, so maybe it'll move north before too long. Happy hanging!

    Very nice to meet you all! thanks for the introductions! Slowly getting my gear together! Got my hammock. Tarp showed up last week! now i just need it to warm up a bit. too cold to stay too long in it right now. no insulation yet! probably want to find a bugnet as well before too long!
