Thanks Slo for the tip. I was able to find a little hidden spot to setup. Still not dialed in but have a better ideal on how it needs setup. The 1.1 robic has a very different feel and stretch over...

Do any of you in the Columbus area have a cool place you try hanging new gear. My spots are now choked with poison ivy. I try to do it in out of the way areas. I don't mind explaining myself to the...

Alright now we've got a plan I hope to see you folks out there.

These some like some good options. I would be interested for a mid-late July or August trip. I think I want a few trips with the new gear first. Keep me in mind if your going later this summer...

I haven't been to any of those. Videos of Dolly sods always make it look like the hang options are few and far. RRG looks cool but not sure how much i want my rear kicked. Wouldn't RRG be hotter than...

Trees that is the first weekend of summer. I know Central Ohio Backpackers is doing a beginner backpacking trip that weekend at Zaleski. I can talk to the leader to make sure we aren't at the same...

Getting into C on Friday is the easiest but h is doable. I have only tented there a few years ago. It kicked my but back when I carried too much weight. Now my base is about half that.

Yes a few of us did it a while ago. The hiking with rain is hard due to mud a a steep grade in areas.

Next you'll want a TI guitar or an Banjo with an Argon drum. All strung with Amsteel.

I was thinking Zaleski or maybe trying out Vesuvius or something. I'll see how I feel Sunday.
I did start a new June thread.

As May is now winding down we may as well start planning for June.

As long as it's not right after the 4th you should be good. Major holidays see a rise in use. The water has to be trucked into the holding tanks. If you stay at the first two sites you can drive down...

Looks like it was not too low, but set to closed off to block wind. This will let the moisture eddy in under the tarp. Think of the fog pockets in valleys. The porch mode most likely is flat enough...

If humidity is super high 90%+, the temp is near the dew point and unless the wind is blowing through open doors you will get condensation. Did you have it pitched low this also promotes condition....
