I will be doing my first backpacking trip and section hike of the AT. My plan is to park my car in MA either along section 8 or section 9 and then get a ride to Salisbury CT and hike back to the car over a few days. Depending on my speed I'll plan on doing one night or two nights on the trail.
My question is, does anyone know a safe place to park my car along the trail for a few days? There are several parking locations in these sections but I don't know if there is one better than another. I would prefer to avoid vandalism, tickets and towing obviously.
I found this resource(http://appalachiantrail.rohland.org/) but I couldn't find any mention on whether certain locations were ok to leave your car there for a few days or not.
