Tarp and Hammock Camping

Hiking Meetups > The Memphis Hiking Meetup
This is a opportunity to learn some Tarp pitching skills and Hammock camping. For those of us that enjoy backpacking or anyone that is into camping, these are great skills to learn for lightning the load of a pack. The tarp can totally replace a tent and the Hammock can totally replace a sleeping pad, thus reducing valuable weight in backpacking. This clinic will be lead by a couple of seasoned pros at both lightning the load and backpacking. This is a rare opportunity and please come with tons of questions for them.
We have been invited to join this group from www.arkansawbackcountry.com for the afternoon learning the many different ways to pitch the tarps and hammocks. Please I do need RSVP’s for this as I have been given a very limited amount of space for our group (after my begging them 
) We can carpool or the like and save a few $$$. Conway is only a couple of hours away and its not a bad trip. Please feel free to email me for any additional questions. I will also place this announcement in the forum area so that I can update it as more information comes out. But please RSVP with me as I do need to know how many will be there. Thanks and I look forward to seeing you out on the trail.
