    Hello Everyone In MN/WI

    Hello, everyone just figure I jump on here and say Hi to all. Mostly to test this out and see if I am am to make this work correctly or not, but also to say hi and Introduce myself. I am in the Duluth area and have been hammock camping for about a year now and have learned a lot from Shug and the Marine on youtube. I have just gotten into winter camping and waiting for my first underquilt to arrive before I go out and try out the the winter camping but I figure I start in the back yard and then go from there. Wanted to go to the Frozen Butt Hang but I ended up missing it because I didn't have the right gear in time, But next year I WILL be there. Well hope to meet you meet you all out there and hope I learn how to use this forum and get to do some hangs with you guys. Till we meet again.

    Welcome to the Forum!

    With Covid, many of our Wisconsin hangs aren't happening like in year's past. We are still planning to have BACONFEST at Lake Wissota State Park in May and many of us attend the Winter Camping Symposium just north of Hinckley, MN in October. Hopefully we'll get to hang with you soon!

For those who feel the tug, who make the dream happen, who put the map in the packsack and go, the world is never quite the same." Sam Cook, Up North 1986

    Hey to all in MN/WI. I'm based in northern New England but am shooting for a long springtime stroll on the IAT (my second). I tented the first time thru, but my Ridgerunner will be much more versatile, particularly for the western half of the trail. Come on, spring!
