    Hello from Canton, OH

    Just wanted to say hello. I've been hiking/camping for nearly 30 years & for most of that time I've used a tarp, ground cloth, sleeping pad & wool blanket (or blankets) for my sleep system (don't like tents). Never considered changing until a recent trip to the Wayne NF. It got down to 40F the 1st night & when I flipped off my blanket in the morning at least 5 half-dollar sized spiders had spent the night with me. Insects or arachnids don't generally bother me but who wants to sleep with spiders? When I got home from the trip I decided I might give a hammock a try, did a You Tube search, found ShugEmery (You Tube name) and became convinced it was worth trying. I'll be going out for my 1st "hang" this weekend in an ENO Single Nest.

    Thanks for all the great info here. I've just begun reading thru the threads.
