[at-l] Is this true?

Better still, why not just make the month of April, on the AT in the GSMNP 
"thru-hiker only" season?  Or at least reverse the quotas and reservation 
system to nine thru-hikers and 3 section hikers per shelter.  There's another 
800 miles of trails in the Smokies.  Not everyone has to be on the AT all at 
once.  

Seems simple enough to me!
