Just wanted to say hello and thank the HF community for all the great information. I have been lurking on the forum for a bit. I thought it was time I said hello. I hope I can contribute a bit to the forum but I suspect it will be a while given the level of knowledge and experience present.
I am looking to get back into hiking and backpacking but cost has always been an issue. My wife has recently expressed some interest so now is the time to give it a try. There is just no way I could justify spending $700 each at REI to get a setup to go out for a few days. My wife may use everything once and be done. Fixed budget so looking to get started in an affordable way.
So I am looking to make my gear and the comments and advice on this forum have given me some confidence. I am going to start by making a couple of hammocks.
Thanks again to the community.
