Not yet. Not that I’m aware of. Indian Garden campground can accommodate hammocks. Check with the rangers.

That would seem like an easy-do, Scouts are always looking for projects. When I was a District Rep we would frequently have more requests than projects.

Not yet 🙁 I’m trying to get a scout to use it as an opportunity for an eagle project.

Planning a rim-rim hike next year (2017)

I agree Derek, the thinking behind a hammock stand would be to simply get the best night’s sleep possible while backpacking. I know that is what a hammock gives me and I always get an awesome rest in my hammock. Being from Calgary,CAN, near the rockies, most of the time, its the simplest shelter that goes up anywhere, as we have no shortage of trees, but some areas, its not ideal. Personally, I’d trade 2 nights bivy style for one night hanging in the woods if it comes down to it, as that is still the best sleep I can get.
