Hiked the Teanaway Ridge Trail then found a place, next to a creek (of course), to spend the night hanging with the hammock.

A solo overnighter at Afton State Park in Minnesota. I go through some of my backpacking gear and show off my hammock. I also get serenaded by some obnoxious wild turkeys!!!
