That would be awesome. Thank you!

I know it is probably a long shot but has anyone in here ever hung at the Wisconsin Northern Highland State Park Buffalo Lake campground. I'm thinking about heading up that way in a couple of weeks...

Yes ear plugs are a good thing to have. I camped in the group sites twice last spring with my Scout troop and didn't have any the first time but made sure to pack them the second time we were there....

Same. With 3-4 kids in the house frying it in a pan takes way to long. Baking it is much more efficient and it stays flat.

I'm starting to panic just a little because my venison bacon isn't ready...

If there are any DIYers coming to BaconFest I have a few hundred yards of 70d ripstop nylon in Woodland camo and Digital camo, both with DWR coating. This stuff was sold as seconds but of the rolls...

I've been admiring your work over on the FB page. Your button knot video helped relieve a ton of frustration for me. Thank you for that and good luck with your work.

I really hope that Devil's Lake goes for his proposal. He would really like to put poles in at least 5 sites. It would be a win win for Devil's lake because it would make those five site much more...

I hang several times throughout the year in the group sites on the south end of Devil's Lake with my scout troop. All those sites are quite hammock friendly.

I have two sons that are pushing to...

What a great video. I love all your carved cups and really like your spatulas. Are they olive wood? I look forward to watching more of your videos.

Was just down through the south end of Devil's Lake last Thursday and made a swing through the group sites. A few of them are melting of nicely while most of them had quite a bit of snow on them....

After having a great time at the Butt Hang with my son we were really hoping to make it to this one but with the IAT hiking seminar on the 13th, a hammock camping clinic for some local scout troops...

Great video Shug. It was good to meet you and all the others. I am looking forward to our next group hang were aver that may be. Thanks for the shout out on the peach french toast. Good to see you...

Nick, thanks for a well planned and prepared event.

What a great experience for my first group hang. Everyone was very welcoming to me and my son and we really enjoyed meeting all of you. My son,...

It is sooooo hard to be at work today. I am super excited to attend my first group hang and meet everyone. I think my son is even more excited than I am. We worked on sewing a foot box into an old...

I have been wanting to do a group hang for quite a while now and I am still a little on the fence about this one only because we have birthdays in our house Thursday and Friday and I may have to...

I might be in trouble then because my 14 and 16 year old sons are better behaved than I am at times.

I have never been to a group hang and this sounds like so much fun. Unfortunately I have way to much shop work to get done before Christmas and will actually be having a planning meeting Saturday...

I am glad the pictures helped. I think a winter trip up there would be awesome. I look forward to your trip report.

Thank you. We talked about possibly doing a cabin to cabin hike next summer or possibly the summer after. There are enough cabins that the distance between most seems pretty reasonable for the kids...

I am a little late getting this together but better late than never. As a little back story, 23 years ago my wife an I headed up to the Porcupine Mountains for our first wedding anniversary the first...

Haha :lol: the thought of that movie crossed my mind after I made the post but I figured I would just leave it. The "Porkies" is in reference to the Porcupine Mountains in the Upper Peninsula or...

We looked over there because we will be in that area Sunday trying to knock out the waterfall map I put together but they are all filled up with the exception of the non-reservable sites. If it was...

We are in the one on the East side, South of the visitors center. The description says it is about a 3 mile hike in the winter and only about a mile in the summer. We are planning to do freezer bag...

Almost 23 years ago my wife and I went up to the Porkies for our first wedding anniversary. Unfortunately it was the first weekend of November and there was already a lot of snow on the ground that...

My ridge line is 7/64 amsteel with a fixed loop on one end and prusik knot on the other end. Seems to be working ok and is plenty adjustable.

I have silver I'd be willing to trade. How about 100'?

New guy here as well. My daughter lives in the valley about an hour southwest of you in Buena Vista. If I wasn't so attached to my Wisconsin roots, that would be the area I would be looking to move...

I've been lurking around here for a few months now and figured I better post an intro. I am a Scoutmaster for a local troop here in Baraboo WI by night (who am I kidding. That's almost a full time...

Fellow Scouter here as well. I started hanging nine years ago and haven't gone to ground since. My first hammock was a DIY gathered end hammock that I tested for 5 minutes in a local park before...
