    Looks like it went really well. I don't think that I saw a planning thread for this or might have come too. I have been going to the events further north and east and the Indiana hangs further west. That's a lot closer to Cincinnati.

    If its not located in northern Minnesota, its not a "Frozen Butt."

    Maybe so..I didn't name the event ;-)

    Still, 10 degrees isn't too shabby in my opinion--a new personal record for me. Ohio can be just as cold as northern Minnesota--trust me.

    Hopefully, you can make it out next year. This was my first time but the sixth year for this event. It was well-organized and a lot of fun.

    Nice report Outlan thank you. How did the makeshift UQ workout? Did the quilted throw just settle to the center?
    Lots of frost on the outside of your tarp in those morning shots but I did not see any condensation on the inside, good job.

    Nice report Outlan. My hammock was just over the hill from your video.

    I posted a couple of pictures in the Dayton FBH thread and I was very impressed with the amount of food!

    We had an excellent turnout. I need to ping the Great Miami Outfitters to see how many people showed up of the 35 that were registered. I got there a little late at 4pm and didn't get a chance to see everyone's setup.

    Should we try to get a Hang together for mid/late April in the Dayton area? I know a lot of people have Spring Break late March/Early April.

    Your Hueston Woods report looks like a possible location.

    I want to get out to Hocking Hills for one of the hangs but that hasn't worked for my schedule.
