Hello all, I'm new to hammock camping. Just started taking up backpacking again after many years off. I have a 17 year old son who has an interest in hiking and camping. We have been doing a lot of day hikes and went on a few overnighters. I needed to update my gear and started researching on the web to see what others are doing. I stumbled on "SHUG" videos, bought a cheep hammock, made a tarp and went backpacking. I love it. The group I go packing with (my son, brother and friend) are all thinking of hanging. I'm set up before they have found a level place to pitch the tents. I am interested in doing some DYI stuff and making changes to improve my rig. Love the site and I'm looking forward to interacting and learning. Thanks
