    Greetings from the high five state! :)

    Hey there! I'm a groovy chick who's new to the hang lifestyle. I've been an avid hiker and backpacker for nearly 20 years. Being from Michigan, I've had so many awesome opportunities to backpack Michigan's Upper Peninsula and Canada, as well as backpacking Utah and Arizona. I've only stumbled upon this hammock lifestyle as of recently. I purchased an ENO DN on a whim from my local outfitter and hiked a portion of the North Country Trail near my old home town. Ever since, I've been hooked. So yes, I'm a newbie, be kind. Any words of wisdom are greatly appreciated.

    Welcome from the PNW! Lots of good info here for refining your hang. Shug's videos are very helpful and add a really fun way to get the info.
