Charlotte, if it rained at wolf pen like it rained in birmingham today they will look like Niagara Falls…. Ha!
Look forward to meeting you, hopefully the rain will let up by Friday. It is suppose to rain up to 4 inches starting tomorrow and hopefully ending thursday afternoon.
My first set up last night.
Low of 31°Nice! I want one of those superior hammocks. Can’t wait to see yours
Tensa4
Superior Gear 0 deg.
Walhalla 12x12 Gopher Tarp.
Next, I need a top quilt.
I was wondering if you guys were going to stick around with all of the rain that is suppose to fall. I’ll be there Friday
I can’t this weekend, possibly next? Trooper is there anything else that needs attention or just those 2 trees. I was planning on bringing a load of firewood that is split. That tree that is leaning...
If you beat me to it, that will be ok! we will get it them down one way or another.
I can bring mine and cut them down....they didnt look like to much trouble.
Are the dead trees close to where people will be setting up hammocks and possibly fall on someone?
I love it!way to go Carver… I sure hope that I’m able to ride a bike at 88 years, I am very impressed. Be careful
yes, i think that i can round some up.
I am planning on being there, gumbo sounds pretty good to me! It will be good to see everyone.
Thanks for the report, I am going to get me one after first of the year! I’m curious as well, does it compare to the pea pod? I like that you can snap the top quilt in and make a cocoon.
I really enjoy watching all of your videos Shug, you have me sold on the superior gear hammocks, I am going to get one after Christmas!
Hi Billy Bob, I am doing well, good to hear from you! Yes, that’s one trip that I will never forgot…haha! I think that I would probably still be there if not for all of you dividing up all of my junk...
I’m still here, and enjoy reading through the post. Not a founding member but came on board in 07. I remember meeting you Tim at the second Mt Rogers winter hang when it was at the wise shelter. I...
Hahaha! You know me wellI really do have to work that weekend though... maybe the spring hang won’t be when I’m scheduled to work and I’ll be able to come.
I will not be able to come this time, hope to be able to make the spring hang. Have fun everyone!
Wanda, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Ashley was a great guy and I’m so glad that I got to know him. He will be missed for sure! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
I'll be there!
Have you walked section 12 yet?oakey mtn shelter is another good campsite with water just before you get to it if you are coming from the chief ladiga end.then the walk over dugger mtn is nice with...
That’s one of my favorite sections on the pinhoti, laurel and lower shoal shelters are great campsites. Did the trains keep you up at the birds in the pine campsite? I wasn’t expecting them the first...
So, I was planning on doing the Dutch oven mountain man breakfast on Saturday morning but since the no burn ban includes the use of charcoal I guess that I won’t bring my Dutch oven. I will bring...
Wanda, I’m so glad that you guys may be able to come! Hope to see y’all Friday
Thanks for the heads up on the no burn ban, I looked around but didn’t see anything.
Jim and nicks is hard to beat, my favorite is the beef brisket but really anything on the menu is good. I have never had a bad meal there. I should be there Friday afternoon and will do a mountain...
I will do a mountain man breakfast Saturday morning and will come up with something for Saturday night to help out.
Tammy, tell Ashley that we are all thinking of him and wish him a speedy recovery! If you guys can’t make the fall hang, I vote to have a winter hang whenever he feels up to it.
In October I work the weekend of the 25th and in November the weekend of the 29th, I’m good on any other dates, billy bob; I do hope you can make it this time, maybe we will do a winter hike and...
Blueberry cobbler sounds really good right now! I’m glad that everything is going well, I’ll have to work 1 weekend in each month so I’ll check it out tomorrow
I’m just happy to see the word “fall”! I’ll check my calendar and see which weekends I’m free.
Ah, go ahead and show us... I need a good laugh if it weren’t for you guys bailing me out that day I would have been in trouble. I think it took effort on everyone’s part carrying out all of my...
Oh yeah, that would be me! That was taken at big tree...pretty early on in the ballgame, it was a looong day.
Oh yeah, thanks Thomas and Bill for posting those pictures, those were good times.... well, I can remember one for about 8 miles or so that wasn’t so much fun...haha!
Kirk, great job as usual on the video of the Sipsey hang! I always enjoy watching them. Ashley, I am thinking of you and sure hope that all goes well with your treatments. Billy bob you should try...
I just loaded the firewood and should be there tomorrow afternoon around 5.... if anyone wants to bring a axe to split it up into smaller pieces that would be good. The wood is split in quarters and...
I’ll bring the firewood again
I vote for whichever weekend it’s not going to rain! I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m about tired of the wet stuff.I heard on the news that Birmingham has had 22.5 inches of rain since...
Any weekend in April works for me
Dale, I hope that you can make it!
Speaking of hammock camping, are we going to shoot for a weekend in April for the spring hang?
I do understand the reason for concern but I personally have never felt uncomfortable with the homeless people that I have encountered at wolfpen when we have been there as a large group. I don’t...
Sure hate that I missed the hang, it looks like the weather was perfect! Maybe the timing will be better for me next year, this one was going to be a last minute trip and just didn’t work out. I...
Hey guys, it looks like I will not make it this weekend after all. My son called today and said that his company had to reschedule his work week from Thursday to next Tuesday. I was looking forward...
I will be in the DC area next weekend to visit my son and I may try to see if I can maybe come Saturday night... I’ll pack the hammock just in case!
I figured that you were at the shelter or near it as I noticed the sunrise in one of your pictures, thanks for the heads up on the campsite. I’ve never walked down that side before.
Nice trip report! It looks like the falls were running good with all of the rain recently, did you camp at the campsite just before the falls or the shelter?
I had the pleasure to meet Frank at the Black Hills Hang and enjoyed our conversations together,prayers for his family.
[QUOTE=PharmGeek;1943377]Thanks! It was fun!
It was past a bit too much for a first time backpacker not in shape - she was sore!!

That was my first hike at cheaha a long time ago, I still enjoy making the loop. Thanks for sharing your video!
Tammy, tell Ashley that I hope he feels better soon. Keep us updated on how he is doing. Wish I had known sooner, I passed thru there today on my way to PC if he is in Dothan.
