Backpacking light, feels so right.
Heck...that looks nicer than my house!
that picture is after my visit (and before they cleaned up the building supplies). sadly, they removed my "modification" to the fire pit bench. i had placed a waste board in the slot for a back rest - worked like a charm!
hands down the nicest shelter in Maryland.
Did a quick day hike yesterday with the wife and kids... Raven Rock is awesome place to have lunch...
Great shelter, on TOP of the hill. Thanks guys

Shared the old Devil's Racecourse Shelter with a couple of thru's one rainy night, dang thing leaked like a sieve! Nice water source as I recall. Still kind of sad to see an old shelter reach the end of its service, a lot of memories were made there.

Just passed through this Shelter this weekend. Awesome shelter, kudos to the volunteers who built it. We had a long trek up in the pouring rain up the Raven Rocks and when we arrived at the Shelter it was full of a freshman orientation group from John Hopkins. They were super noisy so we tented it. A word of advice for this shelter, fill up your water before you get to the shelter because it is a half mile going north or south to get water.
