    NC> Yates Hang Spring 2023 March 9 10 11 12

    Back home Saturday night to avoid the wet pack up Sunday. As usual another fun Yates Place hang. Great to see surprise guests Gunner & the Terminator who stopped by for a few hours to visit and see everyone! Gunner is having a tough time health-wise but was upright & smiling Saturday. Thanks PG for putting together another great outing.

    Almost all the cool kids at Yates! I understand why some left EARLY or did not go, due to Fire&Rain.
    Thanks Slugger, GreaseDoc, Iceman, FireMan, Joyride, and Heather for maintaining fire.
    Good group from South Carolina and Georgia.

    Standing in the burn looking back at my set up.
    Just a few hundred people in the woods

    Great lunch and conversations.

    We-R-Yates!
    I missed the fall so it was super nice to make the Spring forward hang and met a few new faces and visit with those I've known, talked with and learned from for years. All things are not always in our control but we adjust and overcome. A few of us came early EARLY so even though a few departed Sat evening we still got our much needed time in the smoky piney forest (3 nights). PG and all others that coordinated, helped with the hang or attended..... You all did an outstanding job. Looking forward to a few other hangs and especially the next time change (Fall Back) Hang. Later
