    WI, Da Shack Winter Hang, December 2,3,4, 2016

    Welcome to the Second Annual "Da Shack" Winter Hang. December 2,3,4, 2016 in Central Wisconsin.

    Shake out your winter gear and join us. Plenty of trees, firewood, heated shack, good times, great food, short hiking IAT or Iola Winter Sports Park nearby, lots of gab time too.

    You could even (gasp) tent camp. I can't believe I even said that.

    More to come. Pray for snow...

    Get it on your calendar. Hope to see you all hanging, so to speak.

    Tumbleweed

    As long as there's a shack hang, I'll be there. Let's all spread the word and make this one another one to remember!

    Im debating this. New hanger but only getting 30degree quilts made by cave creek. If there is a way to increase that capacity down into the teens then i will commit. Any ideas? Im not scared of cold.

    I used this http://www.jacksrbetter.com/shop/qui...ummer-blanket/ with my 20* TQ at the last Frozen Butt with good results. A fleece blanket under you could help as well. Another UQ to stack with yours would be better. Winter sock would help as well

    Post Directions to Da shack

    Here is a little help finding Da Shack for those who have never been.

    Go to the Iola Winter Sports Club website then click the "Activities/Location" tab near the top of the screen. Scroll down to the bottom and on the righthand side there is a map. Click the "View Larger Map" tab. Turn on "Satellite" mode and it is all downhill from here. "Da Shack" is just a skosh NW (up and left) of the red pin showing the location of the Iola Winter Sports Club.

    Zoomed out:



    Zoomed In:
    (Note that "Da Shack" is the little white dot just below the first "W" in the search box. Also note the section of the Ice Age Trail very nearby.)

    (insert pithy quote here)

    Another map! For driving directions, I used "946 County Road T, Amherst Junction, WI 54407" DaShack.jpg
