Nowhere Man, 11/19/04User Rating:  "Lots of room, lots of pegs to hang gear and clothes, wonderful upstairs loft! Waited out a beater of a rainstorm here and stayed dry and snug. Clean, no bugs or mice (in November, anyway.) Why can't they all follow this design? "
Zeno, 06/11/05User Rating:  "Great shelter. There was about 30 people there the night I stayed in a rain storm, and everyone was fine. Just be careful camping in the spots behind the shelter, as they are the first to flood in the rain. Tip: underneath this shelter is a great place to cook in the rain."
the Vagabon', 04/06/02User Rating: "It is a wonderful shelter that has an upper sleping platform. It is also newer and roomy so it is a wonderful nights sleep."
the white stripe, 03/28/06User Rating: "This shelter is one of the finest i have ever seen. It is large with two levels with shelves on the side. Many people drop off equipment here that they dont need. If you are coming twoards the end of the day, and your at the base of Hawk Mountain, the hike to the shelter is worth the effort!"
Dustin, 02/10/03User Rating: "This is the best shelter! It even has an upstep's room in which you can sleep and keep food away from animals. It has hooks on the side to atach tarps to keep out rain also." Please feel free to add your own comments.
