    If yer in the highlands....where will ya hang?

    Shambling,
    Greetings to you from Minnesota. My Grandfather immigrated from Scotland to Canada in about 1913, returned to the olde sod after WWI and then came back to Canada and then to Minnesota, so I have an affinity for Scotland.

    I hope you'll find the time to check out all the facets of the Hammock Forum, it's wide and DEEP with TONS of info on everything you can think of....and some you haven't yet. I reckon living in Scotland you'll need a proper kit with top and bottom quilts, all protected by a good tarp. No whimpy warm weather hammocking in Scotland! If you're just getting started I'd also suggest the books "The Ultimate Hang" by a very active fellow forumite and Speer's book "Hammock Camping". Both cover a lot of ground...(well at least a lot of information) but most of what is written in them is available here. It would just take forever to ferret it all out of the multiple postings! You will find Hangers to be incredible helpful and sharing, so IF you don't find what you are looking for in these pages...just ask. And don't forget to check out YouTube for some of Shug's videos on hangin'.
    Looking forward to seeing more of you here on these pages.
