    Raven Rock Shelter / mile 1055.0 / -77.52949 39.67327 would be closer.
    Listed coordinates appear to be for the former Devils Racecourse shelter.

    The coordinates for the archway at the beginning of the trail appear to be incorrect. I believe the correct coordinates are 34.557731, -84.249307.

    The coordinates for the Max Epperson shelter (34.62927, -84.19298) are also incorrect. They are for the Springer Mountain are and the elevation is 3,702 feet. The Epperson shelter is at 1813 ft. I can't determine the exact coordinates as the shelter is not visible on Google Maps.

    I didn't check any other coordinates.

    Could someone tell me where I can find the full chart shown above. I had a copy of this before but my computer crashed and I lost all my info for my planned thru hike. This is by far the best shelter distance chart I've come across and would love to get my hands on this chart again.
    Thanks.
