    Hello from Pittsburgh, PA

    New to hammock camping. I've spent too much time thinking and reading about hammock camping, so I finally pulled the trigger. Just getting back into the outdoor experience that I loved 20 some years ago. End goal is to start section hiking, but for now starting out as a weekend camper.

    Welcome!! I'm from the end of Long Island, but I have family in Cranberry PA. I love it there!

    Lots of great hiking in your area. Just did the Laurel Highlands Trail which is close to you.

    Have fun!!

    Hi and welcome to the hammock addiction from a guy from Georgia. I used to visit Pittsburgh fairly frequently back in the mid to late '90s and always liked the area. You guys got me hooked on steak salad with french fries from some restaurant I no longer remember up there. Good stuff.

    Hi from Grand Island NY.
    Too bad you didn't post a little sooner. We just had a great group hang in the ANF at Minister Creek. It has some nice hiking trails too.

    Keep an eye on the Northeast section of the planning, hangouts section.

    I definitely will. I’m completely addicted now that I started hanging and got off of the ground.

    Welcome from a few hrs South of you. Great fall camping is just a month from now so tune up your stuff and prepare to get out there. Nothing wrong with backyard camping to get things worked out.
    I just got back from a week in Kinzua country - we do have a lot of very nice places to explore in the Va/Pa/WVa area.
    Enjoying the simple things in life -
