Went with a few friends yesterday & stayed on a friends property just a little SE of Cochrans Falls.
5 of us took a hike - started at about noon. walked some trails - planned to head to Cochrans falls from the bottom & go up but we ran out of time. was off trail for a while - it got thick and being it was taking more time we had - we decided to turn back before we ran out of daylight. Overall a good hike.
anyone here hike trail near/to Cochrans falls?
we got back to my friends property. setup camp, ate & sat around a fire.
I melted in the chair for about 2 hrs & relaxed
My setup was WBBB 1.1 DL with 3 season yeti, 3 season burrow TQ & superfly tarp. When I set up - I didn't setup the tarp too close to the ground and only closed one end. Thought about using my poncho for a top cover but I was too tired. hooked up my pack cover for a gear bag which hung along side of the hammock right at my reach and it worked great!
Temps got to a low of about 39 degrees - no winds
I had a wonderful creek right next to my bed to sing me to sleep
I was warm - sandwiched between the burrow & yeti puffy down. Only rolled over once & exposed my back. Used a down jacket for my pillow - shoved a fleece vest in the footbox. wore jeans, sweatshirt & fleece socks to sleep. so I was very happy with how warm I stayed thru the night - knowing I could have fixed up a few things to get some more warmth.
attached the few pics I took..
