Alberta Hangers. A place where local hammock hangers can unite.

I'm posting this thread as a place where any and all Alberta Hammock Hangers can come together and talk shop, trade ideas or plan a get-together.

Great idea.

We've been doing an Ontario/Quebec/NY State group with the EGL for several years now and have been having amazing time. Just finished a winter hang!!

Great way to meet amazing folks.

Grey owl's road is still under construction. That bites. They should get their act together on that one.

the national parks are offering free admission so its a reduced rate to visit this year but the back country camping fees still apply. the north end campsites at kingsmere lake have pads with trees close enough for hammock hanging in a few sites. last year was too wet for the road construction and walking bridge work to get completed, the cabin interior is also getting a repair so its locked to visitors.

does anyone in Alberta have a 2 day hike areas that work well for hammocking. any trouble spots for grizzlies lately? i dont have a bear can cache yet, it takes time to rig a bear line to hang food bags between trees. and i have seen appropriately hung canoe barrels opened on the ground.

I know two guys who hammock camped the WCT
