This shelter was dismantled this summer and replaced with another one Called Hurricane Shelter. Its about 5 miles from Old Ochard Shelter. I just read this on the ATC web site. So i dont have any more info. But do plan on walking out to see it soon. Not sure why they would move it other than the fact that the next shelter was only 2 more miles away. So now we have another Camp Site with a good spring. They said the water source for the new shelter is a creek.

Read the funny registration entries when I got to the first shelter after Raccoon Branch, I forget the name of that shelter, that two thru hikers were hurrying on blue blazed trail leading to the dismantled Raccoon Branch Shelter to avoid the starting rain, and found out it was only floor. And got caught in the rain.. HAHAHAHAHA :bse
