Hello everyone

This is my first forum, so Im still figuring everything out.
I am completely new to hammock Camping. I grew up tent camping in and around Wyoming. ( far from there now). I purchased a warbonnet bb a couple months ago, and Brandon was gracious enough to get a couple more sent to me, on very short notice, for a couple friends as well. (thank you!)
We are heading to Arkansas at the end of the month, and I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on good trails / camping areas to spend 5 days on. We were thinking somewhere around the buffalo river? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like you have the hammock bug, alright. A wealth of information here, especially in the DIY section. Welcome to the forums from Indiana!

The Eagle Rock Loop is a good hike - 26 miles. Heres some info on it and other trails http://www.trails.com/toptrails.aspx?state=AR

Please post pictures of your trip for us.

welcome from east Tenn. I think thats a fine choice, being rasied in that area I know theres a lot of very nice places there and around Bull Shoals lake. Im sure if you stay at B.R. you will see the Elk.
