    3rd Annual Oregon Winter Hang! :Planning:

    Its that time again to get this planning and scheduling underway!
    If we want the same basic weekend it would be Jan 17th-19th this year.
    (Can still be adjusted)

    Last years Hang was a great time with 21 total hangers making it out and I hope we can have a repeat this year.
    I have a possible change in location depending what the general opinion is... The last 2 years we have had the Hang
    at Frog Lake, Ide like to add Lower Twin Lake as an option.

    Pros/Cons

    FROG LAKE:
    1/2 mile hike/snowshoe
    Bathrooms
    Developed Fire Pits with Grills
    Tables (thanks Rip)

    But we have to deal with more people and the stinky/loud snowmobile riders

    LOWER TWIN:
    No snow mobiles just occasional snowshoers and skiers
    Same Parking Lot as Frog Lake
    Very easy hiking options around lower and upper Twin Lake

    But we have to hike/snowshoe just over a mile in
    And we would no longer have the metal fire-pits with grills just rock rings.
    and no permanent bathroom structures (there is one by the cars)

    Both have about the same amount of tree options which is to say you could hold a convention of hammocks here.
    Even the trail to the Lower lake is normally used enough that if you didn't have snowshoes you could manage it
    without much issue (just easier with snowshoes)

    Either way I am sure there will be enough Pulks there that you can borrow to help get your gear in (Especially Firewood)
