    Hello From Alberta

    Hi all, I found this forum a few days ago when looking at options for ultralight backpacking. I've been backing packing and camping for a good deal of my life and always thought a hammock would be a great option. After reading a good deal on here I'm going to take the plunge after a figure out a few things. Thanks for all the great information!

    Welcome to the forums, Azrie. Just be careful to secure your wallet otherwise it will fly open in a nanosecond once you see all the cool hammock gear that is available.

    Cheers

    Yay another Alberta person! Which part? I know there's at least 3 HF members in/near Edmonton... probably more I don't know about yet. Pretty soon we'll have to organize an Alberta hangout.

    Hi Shumway, I'm actually from Edmonton as well, a hangout sometime in the future would be sweet. I think it would be great to see how other hangers here setup, especially with our colder weather in general.
