I hiked up outta Appalachian Gap yesterday headed south. Intention was to head to Theron Dean (1.8 miles) and turn around back down. Never did find the shelter. I hit the mad river glen ski hut and lift area which was supposed to be past the shelter. I headed up the LT another minute or two and saw no sign of the shelter. Did i stop just short of it?? or is it still there? Even on the way back (north) saw no sign of it, just the catamount snow sboe trails everywhere. Wondering if anyone has info on this place.
Absolutely beautiful up on this ridge and the climb was fun with 2 feet of snow pack on the trail. This truely is the time to be on the long trail. Cant wait for summer!
