George W. Outerbridge AT Shelter
Reviewed Jun. 29, 2023

Protected and well maintained AT shelter

A single-level open-sided AT shelter near the Lehigh Gap trailhead. The shelter itself is well maintained and has a raised covered platform for sleeping with plenty of space for lots of hikers. There is also a spring nearby for filling up water. Out front of the shelter is a very large campfire ring though there was a mess of junk around it when we were there. If you are planning on tent camping there isn’t really any flat area to set up around the shelter so you might want to keep moving to one of the next sites. The shelter itself can be found fairly soon after the split with the bypass trail and is down the mountain so both are protected from bad weather but also don’t have much of a view. If the weather is good I recommend planning to stay up on top of the mountain at one of the more scenic campsites.
