My AT guidebook says that, just south of the Paul Wolfe shelter (near Rockfish Gap), there are "several good tentsites along Mill Creek." Has anyone stayed at any of these "good tentsites"?

I stayed at a decent site South of Wolfe shelter in June. It was probably 2 miles South. It was quite large and at the base of a hill with lots of switchbacks (sorry, dont have my maps with me). It had a big fire ring and had nice flat room for eight tents easily. I wouldn't say there were very many established sites in that area, at least that I saw. Near a piped water site (mill creek?) there was a pretty cool small site just below or North about 1/4 mile from the water pipe and then another 3/4-1 mile to the large site mentioned. Past that small site and up the hill its a pretty long way to more water... I specifically remember wishing I'd got more earlier when I was NOBO from dripping rock. Hope that helps.
