Ken, if the Conley Cove trail is in decent shape (from down fall, etc) I wonder about going in that way, then taking the Linville Gorge Trail (LGT) south until we find suitable sites.
If it's not already taken when we get there that weekend, there's a large, flat, open pine clearing on a high place, well above the river that would hold as many hammocks as needed. You probably know the place I'm talking about.
It's a little ways south of the popular sites around the Conley Cove & LGT intersection, so maybe there would be a chance we could get to it before it's occupied that Fri.
If not, I'm thinking that finding a suitable area for 8 or 10 (or more) hammocks may not be to difficult in that direction on the LGT.
Thoughts?
