ON MY OWN

After getting Mary settled into the Silver Fox Inn I headed north into the White Mountains of New Hampshire looking for a restricted campsite along an old logging road. These sites have no services, not even a picnic table but do allow free camping for up to 14 days. Each site is marked with a numbered post and the regulations are clearly seen on the white display panel.

The AMC (Appalachian Mountain Club) lodge was just a few miles away in Crawford Notch and they offer excellent accommodations for hikers and those passing through the area.

They very kindly make their beautiful lobby available to the public along with free wi-fi service;.  The lodge seemed to be well used with several school groups there throughout the week and folks of all ages walking in from camping up in the mountains. I was impressed to see folks older than me walking with full backpacks. You can click HERE to find out more about the AMC.
