    I love that hang, I truly do. But for years I’ve been looking for something a little closer to home, and I finally may have a property willing to work with me to get an annual or semi-annual hang going right here in NY.

    But I need an idea of the numbers of people to expect for the talks with the property owners.

    If you’d be interested in attending an event like this, please let me know how many people you’d be likely to bring, and which time of year you’d prefer.

    The location is pretty close to Lake George, and if there’s enough demand, I’d like to try to push for the first hang to be in 2019.

    Thanks,
    I'd be down with that, for sure!!

    I would definitely be interested, especially if there are other fun things to do there such as hiking or boating. I like to at least try to pretend I am working off the calories I will be eating and drinking that weekend! I like the idea of later August, Late fall is fine too. Winter is fine, but if there is a storm I am not likely to drive in it. What side of Lake George? So far to Lake George from my house it says it is 2 hours 45 minutes. (Likely less the way I drive)! I will see you at the L and L and I can find out more then. Thanks Justin!

    I love swimming in Lake George when it is hot. I was just there 21-24 July hanging at Rogers Rock Campground, a DEC campsite. The place is so nice, and hammock friendly. Also recommend Paradox and Schroon Lake. It is a hike, but it is worth it to be away from "civilization."

    As someone one who has hosted many hangs, it doesn't matter when you schedule it, it will always conflict with something else for someone. Choose a date and go ahead and schedule the hang, post the information, cost, earliest you can arrive, latest you can stay, water availability, restrooms availability ( very important for many lady hanger ), parking, family friendly or not, meal planning ect.

    Good Luck

    I'd be interested... and likely one or two others I can think of.
    Yes, my pack weighs 70lbs, but it's all light weight gear....
