    "Basic 6-person design with uncovered picnic table and fireplace. Nice location on a mountain spur with some direct sun. Water is available from a stream a quarter mile straight downhill. NOBOs should fill up at Wilson Creek before climbing the mile up to the shelter.

    Limited tent sites. Privy located behind shelter to right."
