I hiked, and camped Katahdin a few years ago. We stayed @ the Katahdin Stream Camp ground then hiked up the Hunt trail. There are plenty of campgrounds in the park. The camping is rustic to say the least, but worth it. It was an out and back hike. For a summit loop hike you may need two vehicles. Knife edge looks scary. One of the hikers were were with did not like heights, so that trail was out. There are plenty of books about it, or look at the Baxter website. There are some easy loop hikes you can take at the base of the mountain. Good luck
