@gunner76 thanks for answering my questions about the hang and the location this weekend at Yates. Might see me there. Still a long haul but tempting to be around other hangers.

Gunner&Terminator, are y’all and Slugger gonna smoke some BBQ??? If you do, maybe I can get space on y’alls smokers for some Wangs.
I’m still fiddling with my suspension—switching to Carolina Becket Hitch—it’s garnaUteed not to slip
Sometimes after I set up and hang over night—hammock is lower than when originally set up.
Possible stretch of hammock fabric Hexon Wide 1.6, stretch of Dutch’s 2.0 lightweight blue straps,
Possible slide down trees—but lately I’ve been putting straps around tree Twice in form of a round turn, that should squeeze tree till it’s cross eyed. I don’t think trees are leaning in a little when loaded—you never know...
Maybe I’m overthinking and should hang a little higher from start! Hahaha
Now I do remember lowering the head end tree strap so that tarp would be slanted enough to prevent pooling of rain in ridgeline trough or dimple. That probably accounts for most or all of lowering of hammock.

I'll have my Traeger smoker with me this time. Easy to fire up and smoke your wings! If anyone will be there Thursday night, the burgers will be grilled/smoked on the smoker.

Hey Bob (AA2FD) - I'll be setting up & operating my IC-7300 over in the field Saturday. POTA #K-2744, approximately 1400Z to 1900Z.
If we have room, I'm thinking of bringing our little smoky joe. It's a grill, not a smoker. Slugger, if you do dinner thurs, that would be a load off me! I want to try a couple of recipes in Dutch oven. Do you need anything to go with thurs meal? Plan on 6 so far.
Gunner, it happened again. No trip. Wife has minor surgery re-scheduled for the 12th. Bahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! Plans gone to H----- again!

I’m bringing spiral sliced ham, bread and sandwich fixins Thursday lunch and Friday lunch.
Oops also potato salad. Bring your own drinks.
Slugger, if there is room in your smoker Thursday supper, I’ll bring some Wangs to smoke—to augment Thursday supper—just a side.
After this, might have to trade single layer hammock for a double layer mammoth hammock
Yep...between myself & PG we have Thursday dinner covered. I'm doing burgers on the smoker and bringing 'tater salad and a few bags of chips also.
