In case anyone's interested, there's a VERY lively discussion on the Appalachian Mountain Club's website regarding the Club's lodging options and policies in the White Mountains. Go to www.outdoors.org, then click on "Bulletin Boards"; then go to "Mountains and Molehills."
I'm sure some of you will be interested in this discussion and may wish to contribute, as it's certain that your comments WILL be read (and then most likely ignored) by someone at the Club. If you've ever had an opinion on this, now's the time to make it known.
