  • Backcountry camping impact along the Sawyer River Trail in the White Mountains, New Hampshire USA. This area is also the location of logging Camp 6 along the old Sawyer River Railroad, which was a logging railroad that operated from 1877 -1928. In this case the camping impact not only effects the forest, but it also disturbs artifacts in the area.

This is not minimal impact trail work.
