Wow. It doesn't seem like many come to Florida in January except for HangCon. Too bad you didn't stay for that the following week.

It's nice to see Northerners come down and enjoy the different ecosystems we have down here. Silver Springs is a run I take the vendors to during HangCon. It's a beautiful run. So glad you got to see them monkeys.

Hidden Pond is my favorite. That's where we hold the No UnderQuilt Hang in July and Summer's Last Gasp Hang in September.

Glad you got to see more of the FT as well. Did you hike thru the FT North of Hidden Pond near Pat's Island trailhead? If so there is an ancient sinkhole about 15 min from that trailhead. There is a marker in the middle of the FT a couple hundred yards from the TH sending you East to the sinkhole. I love that we can climb down into it.
