    New Hanger from Texas

    Just spent my first night in the BB Warbonnet and loved it. Have been in backpacking tents for many years. I'm 57 and feel like I've been wasting time on the ground. I have so many questions like pads or U/Q and questions like basements and where to put your boots and wet clothes when you get in. It's going to be a totally different world and I'm looking forward to it. This site and forum looks like the perfect place for me. Be patient cause I'm looking to learn from the ground up. Hello Everyone

    It's always great to welcome a fellow Texan! Welcome to the trees.

    You're in a great place to learn. Don't be shy - ask questions.
