best tent camping maryland image
Jeffrey
A group of friends and I wanted to go camping, but also wanted to go to the beach, so we decided to combine them both and go camping on the beach. However, we're unsure if that's actually allowed somewhere along the NJ shore.
Would you be allowed to set up a tent and stay overnight on the sand? And if so, where?
Thanks!
Answer
plain and simple no. there just isn't any place to camp on the beach in NJ. Maryland has some nice beach camping at the National Seashore there.

Are there any bears or other wild animals in the Appalachian mountains?
Q. My college, Frostburg State University, is surrounded by these mountains. The college campus is touching the West Virginia and Maryland border. As far as I can see, there is green scenery and long hills. I was wondering if it's safe to go hiking on these mountains? The view from one of my halls is amazing; I just want to run out there. Please forgive me for my lack of knowledge.
My college is near the West Virginia and Maryland border.

Answer
Wild animals would include: SNAKES, frogs, toads, turtles, salamanders, all sorts of birds, raccoons, skunks, chipmunks, squirrels, voles, moles, mice, opposums, deer, and black bear. As long as you keep your distance from the skunks and avoid female bears with cubs it is quite safe. People hike the Appalachian Trail all the time. I have backpacked in that area myself and black bears have thoroughly checked out our packs. The key is DO NOT bring any food into the tent and store it hanging high off the ground suspended from ropes BETWEEN two trees so that the bears can not get to it. OR if you are camping leave the food IN the car with the windows ALL THE WAY UP. I would worry more about rattlesnakes than bears.
