So what? They can't allow dispersed camping up there in the Presidentials, and the weather in the alpine zone makes it kind of a bad idea anyway. I've only been up there to do the traverse in a day, but thought the huts looked cool and seemed like a comfy way for slower people to take the same route.

Through-hikers aren't the only trail users who matter.

That's not a mountain top and the hotel is obviously for people who are going to the nearby mountain top.

Is that the only demographic that isn't bitter about nice things costing money? There are free campsites just below treeline you know. That's where you'd have to camp anyway even if the AMC didn't exist. People pay AMC to not crowd the free campsites and you're complaining.

That's an European thing, before light tents and modern gear were a thing sleeping in these facilities was the only way to traverse the Alps during winter.

Stayed at a similar hut near moraine at about 3500 altitude for $5/night.

Hey, I went in there last year. It was getting dark and I asked if I could sleep in their basement. Desk girl told me to pay for a bed ($100) or fuck off. Instead of sleeping in the bushes I went up to the top of Washington. Everyone had left for the day. Walked down the auto road then up nh 16 to gorham by moonlight. Shit was actually pretty fun

The AT is getting too crowded to be sustainable if everyone camped individually. You already see toilet paper blossoms everywhere from people who don't bury their shit deep enough.

I'd prefer it if they just popped in outhouses a little more regularly, but hotels like this are probably the best way to minimize overall impact on the area.

it would be a cool concept for a bar, kinda like that restaurant available only by plane since it's at a remote airstrip. essentially have a old school saloon put at the hardest part of the trail to get to for other backpackers to take a break at and discuss their travels

What you're proposing would be unbelievably expensive and a huge headache to produce while also making any repairs more difficult and damaging the landscape. Genius.

So only the five people who would be able to make a living in the White Mountains without tourists are allowed to enjoy them. Cool.

>>1489386
It can’t/shouldn’t be allowed to camp up there because the very few places smooth enough to camp on are also covered in sensitive vegetation which would be destroyed in a week. It’s a very high-traffic but compact alpine area. Again, there are free campsites immediately below treeline.
