    Alright. Got all the arrangements made. Looks like I will be headed that way on Thursday morning the 25th and should be there before sunset. After that 500 mile trip I will be ready to relax. Save me a couple of peaceful, away from the crazy world, trees!

    Close enough for Louise’s to deliver direct to my hammock

    If I got paid to tell lies
    It just wouldn’t be as much fun

    Matthew, there's a gorge nearby. We'll come look for you in the Spring. We'll know where to start when we see your car just off the road.

    Thanks @wv

    I am trying to relieve my wife of some worry. Grayson I could put extra stuff to stay warm etc in the car. Do I have back pack it in or will be able to get to the car easily like grayson?

    You'll be able to get to the car. The campsite is right next to the road. Both the campsite and the road will look a lot more primitive than Grayson. Hickery is your best source of information.

    You can camp next to your car, in your car or as far away as you want to get .

    Yep, like the Grayson Winter Hang, your hammock is only as far from your car as you choose to hang from were all the cars are parked in the main camp area, next to the road.
    A good place to test your winter equipment and skills with a safety net near by.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making
