My wife and I are thinking about hiking the 100 Mile Wilderness. I am assuming hammocks would not be a problem, but I thought I would reach out and see if anyone here has done it.

Not in the slightest. My brother and I did it SOBO several years ago. Every lean-too location has plenty of trees, we also camped at some non-lean too locations (Rainbow Dam, on Lake Namakanta). It was an awesome trip, and I can’t wait to go back.
If you’re just doing the 100 Mile, I recommend touching base with Phil at 100 Mile Wilderness Adventures, in Monson. Stayed at his camp on arrival, got a lift to Baxter the first morning. Tackled Katahdin first day, then headed southbound from there.

Did it NOBO in 2010. No issues hammocking at all. I did a portion in 2003 in a tent and it was way harder finding a flat rootless patch of ground.
