Heading to Pinkham Notch in 1.5 weeks to continue my trek NOBO to Gorham. Studying my guidebook, Guthook and various hiker journals, I'm not seeing any camping/lodging options between the Carter Notch Hut and the Imp Shelter / Campsite. Staying at the Hut leaves a long 15.2 miles for Day 2. Staying at the Imp Shelter requires a long 13.1 miles on Day 1. I could do 10 miles without killing myself. Three days are out of the question since my hiking partner Smoking Sox has been warming up for the hike by bagging 4000-footers throughout the Whites. Damn him for living in New Hampshire!
Are there any camping opportunities north of Carter Notch but before Imp? I'm sensitive to restricted camping areas but wonder if there are decent sites for two tents.
