Great location at the intersection of AT, LT and Stratton Mountain trail

Spent the weekend here on the last weekend of Feb. 2024.  Cold, Snow, Wind, full moon in the middle of the woods with only the people I hiked in with. It was great!  The shelter is a 3.75mi hike from the nearest parking lot in winter.  There are 2 tent platforms, 2 outhouses and at least 16 bunk spaces in the shelter.  

The lake looks great and is one of the largest bodies of water on the Long Trail.
