hammocks at the Tony family ranch

[te_wa]

this is a group hike invitation to not only the hammock hanging crowd, but all can join.
There will be a focus on hammocks, the multitude of set-up options, and a general show and tell and gear talk (no different than any other trip right?)
Temps will be around 35° so make sure you have both bottom and top insulation that works. So far, Drewboy, Tyrone Anderson and Crocodile Ryan and Rally_Toad have all agreed on the date of February 7-8th.
We will take the Haunted Canyon trail from the bottom and stay the night at Tony Ranch. There is water near the cabin. Dozens of sites, numerous trees.
Day 2 I want to show you guys a 100' deep cave and stay in the canyon narrows (as recommended by Kurt)
Its about 10 miles round trip.

i told some friends to head out ther last weekend, they got soaked, all the creek crossings were knee or higher and it was like 22 at night, they didn't have a fire because everything was wet,, incuding their shoes. i guess next time i sugest a place to hike i will tell athem to check the weather before they go

Wow, I guess we fared pretty well then. We were just on the front side of that storm system that moved in I guess. Hmmm... freezing cold, no fire, soaking wet. Welcome to backpacker's hell. Did they get any more snow or sleet out there?
