I'm planning on doing a thru-hike from Georgia to Maine this coming summer. I know there are campsites and official places to camp. But Can I free camp?
Is it illegal to camp off the trail? I want to do a survival style camping situation without using modern convinces such as campgrounds. I plan on bringing emergency supplies such as personal medic kits and reserve M.R.E's.
But is it Illegal to do this? Do I have to camp in designated areas or do I only have to avoid areas where it is posted that I am not allowed to camp?
