Thread: Hello!

  1. #1

    Hello!

    Hello everyone! Long time lurker and first time poster here. I recently got back from my AT thru, where I spent most of my nights warm, dry, and comfortable in my Blackbird. Just wanted to say thanks for all the great info!

    welcome to Hammock Forums and hey from high point nc.
    there is a ton of stuff here to read, learn and ask about.
    if it's hammock related it's here or still waiting to be invented.
    hang on and have fun.

    home is where your hammock is.

    I do have an account on trailjournals, but it still needs a lot of work (I currently only have a few weeks on there). I did, however, keep a journal on paper and am planning on filling in all the holes in my trailjournals soon. My Blackbird worked perfectly; I actually stopped sleeping in it for a little while because it was too comfortable and I would go right back to sleep when I should have been hiking!
