    USFS Campsites on Cherry Mountain Road

    I don't think anyone was comparing the experience of camping in the Dry River to the experience of camping at the end of Hut Rd. Just that they both have sites established by the FS that don't appear on maps.

    USFS Campsites on Cherry Mountain Road

    The WMNF MVUMs don't show anything but the way I found out about a lot of these sites was redlining those maps.

    USFS Campsites on Cherry Mountain Road

    These roadside sites are more comparable to the sites in the Great Gulf and Dry River and other places that are marked with a tent sign. They don't make it to the maps, either, under the same reasoning of potential relocation or closure.

    USFS Campsites on Cherry Mountain Road

    I've stayed at a few sites on Cherry Mtn Rd this time of year and had a fine enough experience. Certainly more privacy than a developed campground. There are dispersed sites all over the whites that FS doesn't put much effort into publicizing. They are often tied up by folks looking to stay...

    Morgan & Percival

    I think the ladders are why most people do it CW. The parking area is also much larger. I had the dog, so was skipping the ladders, and went CCW from the Morgan lot. It's a steeper ascent and I prefer to go against traffic.

    Wild River road

    Just providing a reference to the order. As far as I understand it, the road is only closed to motor vehicle use. The campground is also closed but that isn't mentioned in the order. I've been caught by rangers doing worse. You have to be a real piece of work to actually be subject to any...

    Artist Bluff? Paid Parking?

    It's in the same park and on the same state road that echo lake is. What do they do there that they can't do for an adjacent parking lot?

    Artist Bluff? Paid Parking?

    There are many popular state parks and other state properties that charge for parking. What do you think makes Artists Bluff different than Monadnock or Hampton Beach or Echo Lake across the street?

    There is a note on Guthook from a few wees ago that says the spring at Lovewell is closed due to contamination.

    Fall Foliage 2024

    That section is home to the largest virgin spruce forest in NH. Really is a pleasant walk.

    Fall Foliage 2024

    I saw 2 reports from friends who were up Algonquin/BMP/FMP last weekend. Mostly orange and faded green with some red. Road should be fine. I was up Norcross Pond last weekend.

    I do like that they shifted from the person back to the landscape.

    (Another) New AMC Logo!

    I feel like this time and effort would have been better spent on their Maine Woods Initiative

    Clingmans Dome is now Kuwohi

    You don't have to use present-day attitudes to determine he was a moral failure. The idea of it being morally wrong was prevalent enough at the time that they fought a war over it. Britain had thought to abolish it some 50 years prior. The movement had been active even prior to the nation's...
