I think DuctTape Nailed it ... hike during the day and it's pretty much campfire and food till you retire for the night
Good time to catch up on some needed sleep

I think my challenge will be in getting people to go with me. It seems like it would take a fair bit of convincing. I can't see my boys (8 and 11) being excited about going so that leaves my friends and bro-in-laws. I am thinking that I may need to entice them with snowmobiles, but I don't have any snowmobiles. OK, first I need to find a friend with snowmobiles and then go from there.
It shouldn't be too hard to find other hangers to go with you if you can't get your family or friends to go. Just PM them with your thoughts, start a trip planning thread, take off work, go to the woods and enjoy. Repeat as necessary.
Your welcome
Enjoy and have fun with your family,
That parachute is so sweet. This looked like a lot of fun. Making me want to winter camp for the first time.
All I can say is there are some members here that hammock in cold we do not see here.12 degrees last winter with a 20degree setup was enough for me.Winter definitely separates the men from the boys and the men seem to be the northern tier people.
20below in a hammock?Holy tostada !
Just a friendly reminder, those same fellas wouldn't be caught dead in a hammock in 94*H, 79*L temps with 100% humidity. They think we're nuts with large cojones.
*Also, we just can't always get up there. Would love to hammock in the deep snow.
Enjoy and have fun with your family,
Floridahang -- I would much rather hang at twenty-below than to attempt to hang at 94 degrees with 100% humidity. A person can always dress warmer for the cold but, there is a limit to the amount of clothes you can take off in hot weather.
