A little on the expensive side ($350) but it shows that you can learn anything from the internet if you want to.
Think what would happen if kids spent time searching out opportunities to learn new things on the internet, instead of just searching for entertainment?
I stayed at Overmoutain Shelter on June 2, 1996 during my 1st of four chunk hikes on the Appalachian Trail. You can even see the picture I took for my journal HERE.
I hope they saved the wood and will use it to build a new shelter in it’s place. It was a lovely spot for a shelter.
I understand why they took it down…even in 1996 I wrote:
I would not recommend staying here in cold or windy weather, since the walls all have 1 inch spaces between the boards, but it is the largest “shelter” I have seen on the AT with good views out the “Window”.. I guess it could hold 40 people or so. Good water source, but a little far away (but luckily we got water on the way here).
I hear that it was deemed unsafe and they had to tear it down……even the trail has to change with time.
