I have never tried the hammock set up. I have been using this awsome thing I got at an Army navy store. It can be a tarp, a ponch, or a one person tent. Its a pretty awsoem set up. I am planning a trip to this old abbandoned foundry that was used as a prison during the civil war. Its out in the middle of no where by the river. Rumor says there are many many snakes that inhabbit the area, so I am waiting until we get good and cold before I go hiking in.

Its a neat place. A guy from Europe came over with bunches of money and hoped to start up a steel mill in the 1800's. The process he was using over there did not work over here. He never made a single pound of sellable iron. A whole town built up around it, and then shut down along with his savings.


Chack it out some time. its called "old ardrie".
