I will be staying at a hotel in Millinocket next week.
Day 1:
What time should I be at Togue Pond Gate?
I have my reservations to park at Katahdin Stream and plan to day hike the AT up Katahdin. I saw somewhere that people start lining up at Togue Pond Gate by 4am. Is this correct? I thought I would show up at the gate around 6am or maybe 6:30am and be hiking by 7am or 8am. If there is a line, perhaps I should get there earlier.
I think earlier I was told I can park and hike, no need to check in.
Day 2:
Is there parking at the south end of the Blueberry Trail where it intersects the AT? Where can I park around here?
My thought is to park there, hike north on the Blueberry trail to the AT, then hike the AT southbound to my car. It looks like about a 13 mile loop and minimal elevation.
This will take care of hiking the AT in BSP.
Thank you
