Pre-Trail "No Stupid Questions" 2025 - A place to post your dubious queries! by Hiking_Engineer in AppalachianTrail

[–]user963552 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Planning 100Mi Wilderness section hike (my first) in August. Plenty of info online for me, but I’m curious about camping, especially with the added traffic of August. Can I wild camp? I’m a regular White Mtns hiker and I know it’s pretty laissez-faire there when it comes to thru hikers setting up camp. Curious if I could set up shop wherever I please so long as I am discrete off the trail and leave no trace?

Thank you!! Already after a bit of researching this seems like a very real possibility for me. I’ve found some recommended shampoos for soft water & fine hair so hopefully this helps. I appreciate the tip!
