Pogo Memorial Campsite

nice privy, bear pole, lots of campsites... people have put a lot of work into this place, it shows... I don't know who has been working/maintaining here but the whole area is on a hill and they have dug (mostly) flat campsites right into the side of the hill.. lots of chairs / seats and fire pits made out of rock. it's pretty impressive. most of the sites up the hill from the privy are a little rocky so be sure to have a footprint for your tent and a good sleeping pad. there is also a bunch more sites down closer to the AT. but I didn't check those out because a group of boy scouts were set up in that area. headed nobo, the rocky blue blaze trail on your right, before you get to the pogo sign, will lead you up to the newer campsites and then back down to the privy and the older campsites

So new, well maintained, swept out tent sites and privy, easy to find, quiet, and welcoming for overnight and day use, bear polls and stream within moderate walking distance.

Didn't stay overnight but specifically chose Ensign Cowall Shelter vs pogo for a reason. There is no shelter here (but there is a privvy). The tent sites are up a hill and the water source is further down the hill. The water seemed better than Ensign Cowall but the camp sites seemed less private and/or convenient. The stream right next to the site was cool, though--especially after a night of rain.

Solid campsite with privy, several good spots for tents, hammocks, etc. There's a spring about 400 feet downhill from the entrance of the camp for water (definitely needs purifying). Excellent large campfire site for larger groups.

Stopped here for break. If going to stay walk back towards the camp site, pass the privy for the best campfire pit I saw on the MD section. The stone chairs were a great spot to throw down a pad and kick the feet up.
