Like rivnuts said lots of trees along edges.. I want to do the same.. Hammock camping.. I've studied and ridden by. Chunks of the canal primary from damn no. 5 to turtle run.. several times looking for places to hang.. my hammock..although not directly in the hiker biker sites. Off along the edges I found plenty of areas if you find suitable tree distances...lay out a ground cloth and have at it., we aren't the only hammock users.. whats very nice is that if you absolutely can not find a place..most hiker biker sites are 5 or so miles apart.,there are a few exceptions..Huckleberry to bald eagle,, Huckleberry mm 62.9 Bald eagle mm 50.3 a bit over 12 miles also ya might wanna bring some
Extra Long straps ..remember some of these beautiful giants are over a century old., plus extra ridge line for rainfly..large trunks. Always check over head for deadwood...trees are minimally maintained..feel free to contact me
