I was wanting to start backpacking, but ended up with a canoe. I LOVE some canoe camping. I want to do some float trips this year, but all my trips have been in and out trips on back waters of Lake Guntersville. that looks like a fun time.....I'd like to give that a try sometime myself

Nice setup. We gotta get you a better tarp. That joker will make some noise in the wind. Walmart now sells silnylon hammock tarps for $20.

Nice setup. We gotta get you a better tarp. That joker will make some noise in the wind. Walmart now sells silnylon hammock tarps for $20. This tarp seemed fairly well made, but is small. I ended up returning the one I bought. It would work as a sunshade or to keep the dew off, but it didn't cover either of my hammocks well enough to be trusted in the rain. As far as trails, the Cheaha Wilderness has a couple of loop trails with nice spots to camp. We did the Cave Creek loop (about 7.5 miles) the other morning. It's a challenging hike and you could easily make it an overnight if you started late one afternoon. The Skyway Loop is another popular trail that's around 18 miles if you wanted to make it a couple of nights. I'm still gathering enough stuff to overnight without lugging around my car camping equipment.
