At the group hang in MS this weekend, at least half of the hangers were female. They included, besides the female halves of 3 couples, a single lady w/ a male friend, a single mom with a 6yo girl, a mom with a 12 (?) yo Boy Scout with a jealous husband and older son who had other plans and couldn't make it, and my sister and me.
We all enjoyed ourselves despite 2nights and days of rain and mud and found what we needed to make it work as far as privacy.
Each time I attend a group hang, I see more females, and they are enjoying it and spreading the word. Sharing the experience is the best way to spread the hobby. One good night's sleep in a hammock, with coffee and breakfast around a campfire, may change their life.
