    "Pretty crappy shelter in the wind and cold. Pushed on past to Carter Gap because I would have frozen to death."

    "This is a fantastic campground. Steady flowing water is less than 400 meters away and the view on top is simply fantastic. There's a campground down in the rodadendrin but there's a trail that leads you 100' up to an open, bug free, flat grassy area right ontop of the mountain. "
