[at-l] Register & Shelter Report

I went up to check on Doc's Knob Shelter today.

So far this month the following have passed through and noted their stop in
the register:

Zero & the Family
The Kid
Netla & Blackforest (white rabit)
Heald w/ Dog Wonder
Lash Meglaz
Grizzly Adams
Basketball Jones
Jen(?)rook & Molly

I suspect that vehicles have been going up the AT, as the deadfalls,
limbs, etc. which were put  across the old road at the trail intersection
had all been moved to one side, completely off the road.  However, no one
had been up since the snow.  I replaced the barrier, as that could be an
easy place to miss a turn when hiking southbound.

The shelter has a new burn spot on the floor.  Assume someone let fuel get
away as it is somewhat irregular and a bit deeper than the normal scorch,
although it might have been just a scorch, if someone had a stove really
cranking.  We are lucky not to have lost the shelter.

The privy door handle is broken.  If I get a chance to go up again before a
bad snow closes the road, I'll fix it.

Trash-wise there was not much visible above the snow.  I hauled out a small
bagful.
