    Newbie from NC - Hi!

    Hi!

    Just thought I'd go ahead and introduce myself. I've been hammock camping for about a year, year and a half now, and I have no interest in tent camping unless I have to. My set up isn't perfect, but it's good enough for me for now. I had been using the Klymit insulated Hammock V sleeping pad, but my new underquilt just got here last week, so I'm excited to give that a go. I think it will really simplify my life.

    I live near Charlotte, NC, and am looking forward to meeting some of you guys at next month's Yates hang.

    - Kris

    Fun to see many different hammocks at group hangs. You will meet lots of good people who are into hammock camping too

    Search on Hammock Forums and Google (will usually find topics quickly—right back to Hammock Forums); threads about setting up your underquilt for maximum warmth

    Shug has excellent informative and entertaining videos on YouTube. He has a ten part series
    Maybe a few more instructive videos

    Nice!
    How do you go camping? Plan something with friends, or just go somewhere, hang your hammock and that's it?
