    Good Friday April 2nd, Good hang in the Pine Barrens

    The weather is supposed to be nice this weekend coming up. I am thinking of going for a hang on Friday (April 2nd) with maybe some hiking Friday afternoon, or early Saturday.

    Figured I would through this out there and see if anyone is interested.

    Im leaving for a 3 nighter in Harpers ferry tommrow but have fun hopefully we can hang toogether soon (no pun intended )
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    @Knotty yeah it looks like it is going to bee some great weather. Sorry you can't make it.

    @Lazy River Road have fun on your hang. I wish I could get away for three days but the gf and holiday have other plans.

    I am just working on fine tuning for some gear and my pack set up for the MAHHA.

    I have narrowed it down to one of the primitive sites in Wharton, not sure which one yet but I am thinking a site other than the Batona site.

    I'd love to hang in the piney's with you jersey boys sometime. When i was a kid I lived on Rt. 70 in Southhampton. Hunted, fished and road dirt bikes all over those parts. Oh, but never after dark. Was scared to death of that Jersey Devil. I think I may be over it, but not sure. Let me know how your overnighter went when you get back, if you get back.

    @walkingfool It went well, I think I made a hammock convert out of my buddy who has been a ground dweller. He slept in a bivy sack wool blanket and ground pad. I give him credit for the minimal approach, but it wasn't for me. He was impressed with how small the hammock packed down, and how fast it set up. I general the trip was great. we camped at goshen pond, tested some new non-hammock gear hiked just under four miles in the afternoon. There was a lot of road flooding and the lakes and streams were swollen. The next time I go I will let you know.

    @knotty sorry bro, we will get to hang sooner or latter.
