    Awesome photos and thanks for the write up too. Those woods had plenty of spots for hanging and I am now even more bummed I couldn't make it. But, we'll get some trail time in a few months. Looking forward to the video.

    Hey SkyGEEZER I keep reminding myself to thank you for the blog, the pics, and coming all the way up to hang with us. I look forward to more trail time with a fellow Show Me Hanger.

    Primitive Fire

    Great video Skygzr, both segments.

    Fronkey, you missed the two hours of working the bow and spindle before I finally got a coal to ignite. By then I was drenched with sweat and dehydrated. I guarantee you won't freeze to death doing this because the exertion is considerable, even if you don't get a fire going. I learned a lot from this first experience, and thanks to Lonetracker, it was a success.

    This was a great hang, with a great bunch of people.
