For those that would like to know this shelter is named Cove Mountain Shelter. Thelma Marks Shelter was in the same area and that is where two thru hikers were killed by a drifter. What is unique about this shelter is that it was made from the remains of an old barn and as you sit in the shelter there is a saying on the wall that the wood spirit looks out for you... I did not realize what this was until the second time I was there. As you stand and face the shelter look up at the middle beam on the over hang... there is the wood spirits face carved into the beam.... Pretty cool shelter
