Appalachian Trail, the Wildcat Shelter

This is the shelter I overnighted at on Friday the 16th. Here's the posting from yesterday about that hike Last weekend's Appalachian Trail solo overnight hike 

I like to put up youtube vids about the shelters I've stayed in or seen, since it may be helpful to other hikers on the A.T.

I'm speaking quietly in this one, since it's 6:30 in the morning and two people are still sleeping in the shelter. They're in the mesh tent which they set up inside, to keep the mosquitos away.

For the aficionado, here are the other brief videos I've done on NY Appalachian Trail shelters. the first one has been watched 3,900 times.

And another, the West Mountain Shelter, south of Bear Mountain and 0.6 miles off the trail - http://youtu.be/eCawGL8ps-8

Here's the William Brien Shelter, several miles south of the West Mountain shelter and right on the Trail.  http://youtu.be/KHcvHE1Uqbk
