Ignore my post, I was looking at Augusta GA.

FWIW, I was curious about the flights.

American and/or Delta currently service Augusta.
They currently fly direct to/from Atlanta and Charlotte throughout the day. There is one flight per day...

One could provide a specific place for water to condense inside the tent under certain conditions. Set a water container that is frozen or filled with a snow/water mixture or cold spring water in a...

Haven't thought about that before. I guess it acts as an insulation layer from the cold ground like a soda can cozy. Although a weight penalty, I would think putting an insulated pad on top of the...

Based on comments above and weather data I think a 40°F bag/quilt would be fine but generally warm so camp high. If you own a 50°F bag, take it plus maybe an extra morning layer?? The average low...

Try Stratton Maine. It is the appropriate town.

Do they maintain the shelter?

I may be wrong but I suspect they don't want to have anything to do with the AT or the shelter and are hands off when it comes to the shelter along with its...
