    Here is a picture I took of "Lake of the Clouds" hut looking south as I was descending Mt. Washington. As you can see, there aren't a lot of hanging opportunities

    Here is a video link for a young man who is hiking the AT right now using his hammock. He has posted about 70 video updates so far. Hope this helps and best good fortune for achieving your goal.

    The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
    while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir

    There are a couple of State Parks you'll go through that have some rules, but easy to hike through those areas.
    The Whites can be interesting finding a good spot that is convenient.

    Otherwise, there are gobs and gobs of great hanging spots all along the AT. The Whites will be the only difficult stretch, but there are places to hang.

    Welcome to the Forums and congrats on coming over to the Dark Side. It's much more comfortable.
    Okay.. complete dork question here. What is the "Whites"?
