    Hello from Minnesota

    Just wanted to say a quick hello, I've been lurking around the forums forever and finally created an account. I'm in the NW Suburbs of Minneapolis at the moment.

    I don't have much for gear yet, basically just a DoubleNest and NHO Straps for some day trips. Looking to study up and eventually get into backpacking or at least car camping.

    Thank you all for the posts and great resources found on this site, I really appreciate it.

    Glad you decloaked. Welcome to the forums from a guy way down in the southeast corner of the map.
    Cheers.

    Great to see people from the area! I'll have to join in a meetup someday after I feel like I can hold a halfway intelligent conversation on the subject.

    Heck veteran hammockers love to communicate with the newer users. It's our way of giving back so don't wait just jump in.

    This site is one of the most helpful to noobs that I've seen! Someday I hope to be able to pay it back, too!
