As of 2025, the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department, aiming to restore the area to a more natural state and enhance wildlife habitats, requested the removal of the Baldhead. The Cohos Trail Association has announced plans to dismantle the structure during the summer of 2025. Until late October of that year, the site will remain available as a primitive camping spot, after which it will be closed permanently. For those planning their journey along the Cohos Trail, it's essential to note this upcoming change. The removal of Baldhead Shelter will create a longer stretch between established shelters, specifically between Old Hermit Shelter in the Nash Stream Forest and Panorama Shelter on Sanguinary Ridge. The Cohos Trail Association is actively seeking alternative camping solutions to accommodate hikers during this transition. As always, hikers are encouraged to plan accordingly, respect land management decisions, and stay updated on trail changes to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience in New Hampshire's backcountry.
