Can't wait. See you soon!
Bummer but have fun. Still might see you at L and L this weekend. Trying to recover from a corneal abrasion, not really up to the 5+ hour drive yet but I'll see how it feels in a day or two.
Looking forward to meeting you Joseph. This is a very relaxed hang with a few options for hikes on Saturday and if the sky is clear we'll go up the logging road to stargaze Saturday night.
Glad your coming! I'm hoping most of the gang can make it this year.
2023 Great Pumpkin Hang
Hello everyone. We have a date for this year’s Great Pumpkin Hang. It will be September 29th-October 1st. This is our annual fall hang on private land near Mt. Cardigan....
That spreadsheet is empty and read only. Do you want to go back to this one? Alexandria NH Sept 23-25 GPH
Weekend cleared up and it looks like I can make this one. Can't wait to see everyone!
Thanks for the offer but I'm still icing 4 or 5 times a day and going to PT. I don't think I'm quite up to any trips but hoping to be back out there by end of November. Have some bacon for me!
Thanks for organizing this year Stacy. I just had my knee surgery and put in for that Friday off but I doubt I'll be up to driving 4 1/2 hours. If I don't make it this year have fun!
I'd like to second everything Chaaaz said. Thank you Megan and Nate and please stay safe. Really hope I get to see you both later in the year!
I have site 85.
Thank you Cindy and Eliot for having us back. I've started a trip report thread here for everyone to post to.
Thank you Cindy and Eliot for letting us have this hang on your land. The weather was good all weekend and the mountain colors were amazing. Thank you to everyone that cooked and helped out. Another...
Because of the mud going down to the camper and getting to our regular hammock area we’ve decided to use the area over the bridge.
Continue to drive straight until you reach the bridge. Everyone...
Don't forget to download maps of the area in Google maps before you leave. Cell is spotty once you get past the last town.
It has been far to long, looking forward to hanging with you again sir.
Looks like we have the typical chance of showers through the weekend so it could be clear skies or major storms :) I'm bringing a pop up, if anyone else has one it might come in handy.
I'm going to look at Monday off but not sure if it's doable.
Hope to make it Friday evening or Saturday morning. For anyone else new to DAR this map gives a good view of the road in to the group site from main entrance.
If only I could be up there for a month or two... :)
Sir, Looking forward to seeing you again. Hope you can stop up and stay for a while.
I have a couple friends joining me this year and they mentioned doing a day trip to White Mountain Oktoberfest. Thought I would mention it in case anyone else wants to add it to their plans for the...
I can't wait to come up. It should be after my business trips this year so no having to leave at 4 am this time :) I think I'll have a couple new people joining me to check things out.
Working fine for me.
I wasn't sure so I started digging through photos and found these pics from 2013. Looks like were on #7 for one of my top two favorites :)

This is on my list if I'm not traveling for work.
Bummer, maybe next year..
Come on. I thought you picked up a van to drive to these :D
Stoked that many of the regulars are going. Can't wait to see everyone, eat some good food and hang out around the fire!

On the calendar and can't wait for this one as long as I'm not traveling for work again.... Mmmmmm Lobsta!
This date looks good. I've added this to the Calendar. Can't wait!
On the radar and time off request in.
The address I'd use is "164 Main Rd, Chesterfield, MA 01012". This is the Town building a stones throw from the entrance here
Can't wait to see the date and details on this one. I haven't been up that way in a while.
Thanks for starting this trip report. Sorry I couldn't say goodbye to everyone but leaving around 4:30 gave me an hour home before heading back out on the road. I Just rolled in the door a few...

I'll have my easy up and a couple smaller tarps. We really don't have a good location for a large tarp but do have the canopy off the camper which can cover the picnic tables.
Right now chance of...
See you Friday morning. Right now the hike sounds like fun and the weather looks great..

Glad your back in Pete
Sorry to hear that Joe. Hopefully see you in the spring if not an earlier hang.
Looking forward to seeing you again. It's been quite a few years since the Goose Pond trip.
Besides Pumpkin flambe and the usual Saturday hikes do we have any other requests for scheduled events? In the past we've done knife sharpening, splicing and Map/compass.
I'm sure I have some amsteel somewhere, I'll make a note to find it before the hang.
Sounds great! I'm in. I've spliced a bunch of stuff in the past but never made the soft shackles.
No $ needed. I'll take one for the team and drink these :)
Thanks for the offer :D See you in a couple days.
I'm not aware of any soda cans in this shape and size. If you find them I'm fine with cutting them to the correct size.
I can do the stoves again once I drink a case of these new bottles https://tinyurl.com/y9obemn4 and cut them up. Maybe I'll get started at the L&L hang this weekend :)
This one is back on the radar. Hope I can make it.
Hello from the Berkshires and welcome to the forum.
I second this. Thanks Cindy! No excuses for the adventurous Prius people now :)
Did anyone get pictures of that night? :laugh: I was super impressed that you found us in the dark on foot a couple miles away..
