Roaring Fork Shelter

[Rain Man]

I attended the dedication of the new Roaring Brook shelter, Sunday Nov. 6th. I believe the old shelter was still standing, but not for long. The new shelter is about 3m from Lemon Gap and 2m from max patch rd....

Nean,

Did they change the name for the new shelter? From Roaring Fork to Roaring Brook? Just wondering.

Also, to make sure I understand where the new one is, can you tell me how far it is from the old one, and whether the new one is north or south from the old one?

Thanks!

This may be a repeat as my last reply went somewhere, neverland?

The new Roaring Branch hut still has the old name RMan. It's located just over 2m N of Max Batch Dr. and 2m S of old shelter and a bit more than 3m S of Lemmons Pass....if memory serves me.... If you look on the map, I believe its where Roaring Fork crosses the trail and is the shelter water source.
