Nice job and thanks to the construction crew for all their efforts.
I'm a bit surprised that the design didn't incorporate a "cooking counter" across the front, which I've found more convenient than everyone clustering around the picnic table at dinner time.
Interesting stonework! -

You're Welcome, Kerosene.
A table or cooking counter with some benches was in the original plans similar to the Mountaineer Falls Shelter. Considering that it took longer to build this shelter than anticipated and since a picnic table was already in place those plans have been temporarily 'tabled' (not too mention that under the picnic table is about 10 inches of crushed block which would make for difficult post hole digging - Doh!). We might upgrade some time in the future however.
See you on the trail,
