 Sitting 300 feet from the trail, this shelter (built in 1965 by the USFS) is just a few hundred feet from FS 67. There are two small springs at the site, but they are unreliable in dry weather. A side extension roof for covered eating area was added to this shelter also.

Sleeps 8. Privy. Bear cables.
