Winturri Backcountry Shelter on the AT in Vermont — Appalachian National Scenic Trail
Reviewed Sep. 18, 2022

Large shelter with lots of tent camping

Note: This is a back country shelter on the Appalachian trail that doesn't have consistent water.

I stopped here on a section hike of the Appalachian trail. The shelter is on the larger side and could fit maybe 6-8 folks. There were lots of tent camping spots as you worked up the hill perpendicular to the shelter.

Water was running when I was there in mid-August from a spring close to the shelter.

There was a decent privvy onsite.

The shelter was fairly standard but this stop had a great amount of tent camping around in spaces with decent privacy.
