Fun article by a big presence in the backpacking world. Good publicity

Have enjoyed parts 1 and 2. Looking forward to part 3.
Welcome to HF! You will find a nice group of folks here that are more than willing to share their knowledge. I have yet to find a nicer group of people than on HF.

Great article, Alan. Very well balanced. No signs of fanaticism (yet).

Welcome to the forum too.

Great I was hoping to not have to wait too long for it. Great articles, mainstream here we come.

Great write up...

I'm really glad to see his opinion of hammocks change, and happy he gave into the experience of hammocking and the benefits of it.

Not to question your judgement, but change the "You" to "We" because you are a part of this wonderful community as well

Also, if you have time, give us a short trip report in the "trip report" section. I'm sure there are some "trees" or at least hammock anchor points somewhere in them there canyons.
Good luck and have fun on your trip and be safe.
