Reviews
"Very clean and nice facilities. The tent pads were level and free of rocks and debris. Overall a very nicely maintained campground."
"Picked our son up fro.m the Appalachian trail. Good place to wait for your thru hiker or camp yourself"
"I love this mountain. New trail, same destination yet still a new experience. Travelled up the Hunt trail and loved every minute of the climb. As soon as you break the tree line the backdrop turns amazing with an increasingly improving view. Also, the climb was at times intimidating, even for a seasoned hiker such as myself. The ridgeline that made up the most challenging leg of the trail begins at an area where travellers are offered a few installed holds to aide in the climb. This is where many turn back. These steel permanent holds are an excellent place for anyone who might be anxious when confronted with heights to turn around. The next mile or so was intense as the trail really gains altitude with no foilage hiding the heights. Aside from the three perma-holds there were two to three more loactions that required upper-body strength but not too extrenous. One crevice on the spine made small packs an asset. The trail is marked really well, if you cannot find a marker back track yourself a little bit there is always a marker (white on this trail). These markers are painted with a reflective paint making them easy to find in the dark with headlamps. I recommend at least 1.5 gallons of water for this trip per person, but always ask a Ranger first, obviously their knowledge trumps my opinion."
"One of the best campgrounds in the park to wake up at. The sun rising from behind Katahdin every morning is hard to beat."
