    Default Water? Carver's Gap to US19E

    Can anyone tell me how the water sources in this area are holding up with the lack of serious rainfall? I spoke with the lady at Mountain Harbor B&B and she said she thought the water sources at OverMountain Shelter were in pretty good shape. Has anyone out there been in the area lately that could verify this? Thanks in advance.

    On the 18th, Stan Murray Shelter had a small pool of water. On the 25th, Overmountain Shelter was flowing. Go about 200 ft to the left once you hit the dirt road. You should see it on the Right, downhill.

    See you on the trail,

    Sources around Watauga and then up on Iron Mtn are the only ones harshly hit from the drought.
