    Hi from Denver, Colorado

    Glad I found this site!

    I'm a seasoned car-camper, an intermediate backpacker and motorcycle camper, and have never slept in a hammock anywhere but my yard. I aspire to become proficient at winter snowshoe camping but have only slept in the snow when my car was a short walk away.

    I hope to learn and eventually contribute here.

    I live just NW of Denver and work as a hardware engineer in a communications company. I play guitar, have season tickets to the Rapids, and prefer to watch science TV or movies with pointless killing like The Shining or Kill Bill.

    That's me in a nutshell: Artist, Scientist, Athlete, Friend...

    Thanks!

    Welcome, welcome.

    If you haven't heard already, Shug's videos are a good start - thread

    And I really recommend the book (or kindle version for $4) by member Dajohn - The-Ultimate-Hang-Illustrated-Hammock

    Hi from Denver, Colorado

    Welcome from Kentucky hope you enjoy all the great info you can get from this forum.
    We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all.
