About this campground
Imp Shelter offers a rustic backcountry camping experience in the northern White Mountain National Forest. Located on a spur trail off the Appalachian Trail between North Carter and Mount Moriah, this shelter provides overnight accommodations for hikers traversing the Carter-Moriah range. The shelter was last rebuilt in 1980 and was the last native timber shelter constructed in the White Mountains. The facility includes a closed shelter structure with a large sleeping shelf that accommodates approximately 12 people, along with tent platforms for additional camping. A caretaker is stationed on-site during the summer season to collect fees and assist visitors.

When the caretaker is not present, campers use self-service cash boxes. This backcountry site is ideal for experienced hikers and backpackers seeking a remote mountain experience. Campers must come prepared with their own water and supplies, as no potable water or restroom facilities are available on-site. The shelter is located in a scenic area of the White Mountain National Forest, providing access to ridge hiking and mountain summits.
