There's no camping within 1/4 mile of Partnership Shelter https://appalachiantrail.org/explore...g-regulations/
That means the ponds and the dam are off limits.
That'll put you across the road northbound.
I think there used to be signs right there on trail to tell you where the 1/4 mile is. If you got service, you can draw a 1200 ft line in Google Maps, the shelter is on the map.
This is just a friendly reminder for the people that keep posting about breaking the rules at the shelter.

Sleepin by the river just like he usually done
Call for his whisky
He can call for his tea
Call all he wanta but he can't call me..."
