    Thumbs up Greetings from Minnesota

    I've been backpacking and canoe camping for years and finally reached the point where sleeping on the ground was becoming a deal breaker. So began my journey into Hammocking. I have a Ridgerunner Hammock and a superfly Tarp. I came to the Hammock Forum after purchasing a Tensa4 stand and began looking for tips and info on setting up the stand with a bridge hammock. (Motorcycle camping) This community has been a wealth of information and I have only scratched the surface. I'm looking forward to exploring the forum.

    Welcome! My story is very similar to yours, although I wasn't a hard core camper. Last years trip messed my back up pretty bad, and it was months before I got it sorted out and hammock camping has helped my continue our yearly camping tradition alive.

    Welcome to the forum! I live over in Milwaukee, WI and was just in MN at the Winter Camping Symposium last weekend up in Sturgeon Lake. I don't know of any other hammock camping opportunities in MN soon though. We've got hangs over in Wisconsin all the time, if you can make it over. The closest one I know of for you might be BACONFEST 2020 in Chippewa Falls, WI. I keep a bunch of hangs listed in my signature file too.

    The only HF member I've camped with who arrives on a motorcycle is Mixter. He live in the Chicago area. I haven't seen him at hang recently. I don't know how often he is on the forums either, but you could always PM him.

    Feel free to add yourself to the HF Member Dispersal Google sheet. Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing
    ◘ May 17-19: BACONFEST @ Interstate WI SP ◘ Oct 3-6: miCHILIgan @ Middleville, MI ◘ YouTube: karlawithak216 ◘ Instagram: i.am.karla.with.a.k ◘ 97 months
