Hey gang...just a quick intro to me:
28 year old married radio DJ from West Virginia. No stranger to camping or the wilderness (I'm an Eagle Scout), but new to hiking/backpacking.
Looking to do some hiking and possible overnight trips sometime this year. I used to do a LOT of this in Boy Scouts, but adult life happened and I spend more time in a radio station than I do in my own house.
ANYWAY - I'm really no stranger to being in the wilderness, but I had some questions about etiquette in State Parks and that sort of thing.
On a multi-day hike...where does one decided to set up camp? Is there typically a formality here or do we just plop down and set up shop?
If it helps any, my wife and I are looking to hit the Dolly Sods Wilderness in WV sometime this year. Thanks for the help!
