My name is Zak and I have been hiking and camping since I was a little kid. I am primarily a day hiker now but would like to get back into camping eventually and thought I would try a hammock. I frequent the Linville Gorge, NC as often as I can and primarily go there.
My primary purpose of a hammock right now would be for an emergency situation if I were to get stuck out somewhere. I carry enough gear with me on day hikes to stay out if I had to but other than a tarp and an emergency bivvy, I have no sleep system. I would love to have a lightweight and affordable hammock that I could carry in my day pack that could be easily set up if the situation arose.
I'm completely new to the idea so I look forward to researching and learning a lot about it.
