VA - Mt Rogers - 6th Annual Grayson Fall Festival Hang

[Namtrag]

That's a late night campfire tale for after the children and faint of heart have retired to their hammocks .

Can't wait to hear it!

Yes, its called rain.....

There are shower facilities about a 5 minute walk in the family campground next to the group site. The shower stalls are small so you have to exhale to turn around in them.

Uh, oh. Does this mean there will be no showering with pigs?

My wife has ask me if she could join me on this trip, she has not backpacked with me since sometime in the 80's. I guess I will have to set her up in one of my tents and let her try out my hammock on one of the nights there. Namtrag and Pyroxtreme have offered up a spare hammock and possibly a tarp, maybe that will give me an excuse to get another underquilt. Have plenty of sleeping bags that she could use as a top quilt.

There should be several folks with extra stuff. We usually have extras for the hammock demo. Just let someone know when you get in that you are interested in having a setup for to try out. Hope you have a "Christmas" savings account!!!

We've often times had a tent or two around the group site. Everybody's welcome.

Glad to see the sign up sheet growing!
There are always a few changes but it looks like over 30 at this point!
And a couple months to go!
