    Default Looking for water report at Johns Spring shelter VA

    Can anyone pass on info on water availability at Johns Spring shelter. Guide book says it's iffy. Probably true, just looking for a current report.

    BTW, this shelter was at one time called the Boy Scout shelter and was renamed when it was rebuilt.

    Exclamation Just in case anyone is looking for information

    When I was there three nights ago, Johns Spring Shelter has absolutely no water.
    Zero, zilch, nada, nichivo.
    The spring for Catawba Shelter is also bone dry.
    Which means a 8.4 mile stretch without a drop to be found, and the flow at both Campbell Shelter and Lambert's Meadow doesn't look so good.
    Fill up whenever you get a chance!
    Don't repeat my mistake!!
