i planing to hike the Maryland half of the Appalachian trail and one way to save on weight i am going to camp from one shelter to another. just want to know is there any rules about the shelter? or are they any unwritten rules, for example don’t use cell phones stuff like that?
and how is it like to sleep in a shelter. is it cold? too many rats?
now i am prepared for the cold and the rats and so on. i actually want the trip to be as hard as possible, because that’s the way i like hard and tough. like to test my body and my mind. it is just i want to know what i am up against or what to expect.
thank you!
