I'm debating trying out my new hammock up at Cherry Lake in the Stanislaus National Forrest - I've seem a couple remarks in looking at the area that people have used their hammocks there. As I look at photos, the trees in the area don't look that fantastic for hanging, I was curious if anyone here had used a hammock up there?

Also is there any good places in or around Stanislaus that would be good for hammock camping? It's been 16 years, I need to get out doors!!!

Is there any groups in the area that go group hangs? My preference would be in colder weather
