Hello! from Michigan

[rakeif]

Hi everybody,

Wanted to drop on in and say hello. Based in Michigan, and starting to build my backpacking hammock setup after being gifted an ENO DoubleNest last year and liking it more than my stupid tent. Here's what I'm looking at!

HAMMOCK:
—Dutch 11', 1.0 Hexon
-Structural ridgeline
-Knotty mods
-Fronkey Bug Net for when it's super buggy

SUSPENSION:
—Dutch Spiders
-8' Dyneema straps
-Continuous Loops

TARP:
—WL Tadpole
-Flyz/reflect-it for ridgeline
-Tarpworms for corner tieouts

INSULATION:
—EE Revelation 20* (And also a summer bag for when it barely dips below 60 at night...)
—EE Revolt 20* (And eventually a shorter summer UQ for the same as above...)

Hoping to get most/all of it by next season and spend the whole time hangin'! Looking forward to it and from learning even more from these forums.

Hello and welcome from Marietta GA. Happy hanging!

Ahhh, I got family in Marietta! And my parents live in Greenville, SC. I'll be doing some hanging down there, too!

Welcome to the forums. You sound like you've got a good handle on what you like. Be sure to check out Shug's videos and let us know if you have any questions.

Welcome neighbor to the south. I'm up in the northern Oakland County. Lots of Michigan hangers here and if you get the chance, come out to a group hang sometime and meet some folks and see some gear in action before you pull the trigger. We just had one up north a couple weeks ago.

I'm originally from Waterford, so I know the area well! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a group hang.

Hey there, I am originally from Michigan myself, welcome to the madness.

That is a mighty fine set up you've got there. I have a Dutch Hexon 1.0 myself, and it is an amazing hammock. You'll like the Fronkey-style bug net. As for quilts, I know EE has a super long wait time for their product. You should look at HammockGear or UGQ also. They make amazing products.
