New member from Marietta, GA… I have been poking around reading checking out some ideas, watching some videos (plug for “Shug” and his awesome newbie videos) gathering ideas etc.
I have recently in the last year picked up hiking as a hobby and exercise program I enjoy camping so figured I would couple the two. As of this writing I have everything I need to “car camp” I am just starting the ramp and replacement with lighter weight gear. Some work friends and I are planning a section hike in May of the AT going south from the North Carolina border near Bly Gap into North Georgia - Springer Mt. / Amicalola Falls. I figure that I can get used to the Hammock side of things lessen my load and hopefully wake up with less back pain.
I will most likely be replacing both my tent and sleeping bag, so I figure a hammock and quilt system would be close in price just need to work out the details… I hope to learn from all of the writings in this forum.
Thanks
TMJess
