    Hello from Maryland

    New to forums and new to the idea of hanging in a tree. But after spending a few days watching Shug's video's on youtube (besides being homesick, man I miss Duluth) i've been contemplating getting myself a hammock to try.

    So been crawling all over the internet, reading, watching.....reading some more.......watching Shug's video's again and again. And in several of the vid's he mentions several helpful folks here on these forums. So here I am, pay me no nevermind while I poke and prod information about what hammock I should buy for my first hammock.



    Shug, nice to see another crazy Minnesotan floating around, but I have to ask......why is Spam not in your auto-signature on these here forums??

    Welcome from just below ya (Gaithersburg).
    You will find this forum a wonderful (but ultimately expensive) place to hang out. You couldn't ask for a nice, more ingenious group of people, always willing to help out.
    Welcome.
    Now get yourself a hammock, hang it and enjoy-let the madness begin.

    Welcome to HF from Georgia! If your trying to decide on a hammock I wish you the best of luck. Everyone likes different hammocks for different reasons. I have 4 different types and just ordered a B.I.A.S. wwm. You can never have too many hammocks. So many to choose from.....so little money to spend.

    Welcome from Lutherville, This is a great forum and glad to have another MD'er joining up. look into attending the Fall MAHA (http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=56948) its a great place to check out lots of different hammock and accessories. Its only a month and a half away so if you can wait to order a hammock until then, then you could check out a bunch of different one before making your final decision. And yes ground dwellers are welcomed.
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    Welcome from Belgium. I use to live in Maryland. There should be some great places to hang near where you are. If you want a little drive Green Ridge State Forest is my recommendation. Just head out interstate 70 and take interstate 68 (not local 68) left exit. Should be and 1' 30" - 45" from Frederick. Primitive camping. But there are other places closer as well. If you do get out there, take some pictures. I miss that place.
