We had a great weekend on the A.T. Had my son come up and we did a section hike. There were a lot of other hikers out also, between the weekend warriors like us and all the thru hikers it got pretty crowded. Saturday night we actually had to make a new campsite because of so many people on the trail. We had a great time and the hammock did great, this was the first time I have used it so I'm sure I have many things to learn. Here are some of our pics.
Ha! I am 99 percent shure i saw you! I was thinking about comming to ask you about your system. I was one of the boy scouts that would wander down from time to time for water. I camped under just a tarp, and regretted not having my hammock.
What kind of tent is that?
I may have to invest in a good one man tent soon.
Yes I remember seeing the scouts, hope you guys had a great trip also. You should have come on over, everything went great until the wind came in on Saturday night and it was wicked the Superfly worked great but I didn't have the doors tight enough and they were flopping something terrible but I just couldn't make myself get up and mess with them in the middle of the night.
The tent is a Henry Shires Tarptent Contrail it only weighs 1lb and 8oz I've had it about three years an love it. My son used it and a Neoair and had a great night sleep.
Looks like y'all had a great time of it, in some great weather! I'm a big fan of sectioning the AT, and am looking forward to doing more of it.
Thanks for posting it up, and sharing...
u.w.
Thanks for sharing the adventure. Nice to see you out enjoying this great weather. What section did y'all hike?
Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!
We went from Hog Pen Gap to Unicoi Gap.
