    Nice photo. We had visited the Punchbowl Shelter the night before our climb up Bluff Mountain. We ate lunch on top of Bluff Mountain in sight of this memeorial and while there 2 local hikers joined us. They said Little Ottie has been "seen" at Punchbowl Shelter by different people on several occasions.
