    Who is heading out this weekend?

    Anyone hitting the trail/woods this weekend? Where are you going and how many miles? Who is going along with you? Are you testing out any new equipment or bringing any unique luxuries?

    I'm hitting the North Country Trail near Mesick Michigan with my wife and pup! Probably walking in 4-5 miles setting up camp and head back in the morning. Testing out my 11' Dutch netless, PLUQ, and Tadpole tarp by Wilderness Logics. Gonna bring along my harmonica and would be interested in any tips for bringing along some steaks to cook up! Happy hanging!

    I'm heading there the week after next to do the NCT-MRT loop. I may change the venue, but that's the plan for now. Solo as usual. Trying a lighter water filter setup with just my sawyer and 2 bags connected using the sawyer coupler. My luxury item is filling a Platypus with some wine; worked out great a couple weeks ago for sitting around the fire at night!

    I am hiking the Jordan River Pathway, 21 mile loop, with 7 others from a MeetUp Hiking group (I'm a co-organizer). Maiden voyage of my Jam 35 backpack.
    Looking forward to some good eats- homemade, dehydrated beef stroganoff,
    BBQ pulled pork w/ taters, and spaghetti. Should be a great weekend!!

    I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.


    When I see lovers' names carved into a tree, I don't think it's cute. I think it's strange how so many people take knives on a date.

    I'll be with yall in spirit, hammock camping in my back yard. I try to get out to the back yard every saturday night to test new gear and fidget with older gear. This week, I get to put my new-to-me Hennessy Hex tarp to the test.

    Yep I am going for a night with a member here on HF to test some new gear. Not a long walk, just to find a place to hang and spend a night :-).

    Location?

    The province of Drenthe in the Netherlands

    I hope to get out to Mohican State park a little North of Columbus this Saturday, this would be only my second trip that wasn't just in the back yard. Want to test out my New Yukon Outfitters top quilt and under quilt I grabbed from one of their woot sales. Still a little weary about how muddy camp and the trail might be, but I will have a few packable towels and wet wipes with me just in case.

    I want to go out this weekend to try out my new suspension setup. I want to try using my mule tape and new kevlar straps. Going to practice a marlin spike hitch with a trail stick as a toggle.

    For company, I am going to bring my dog with me and try hammock camping with him for the first time.
