I stayed in this shelter on the night of July 3, 2000. It's small but 
was fine although rustic as described. I had also heard the same 
story, that it's was Earl's shelter, at least until floor was added.

As a southbounder I then walked in to Duncannon on the morning of the 
4th, several kids fired about half a dozen bottle rockets at me as I 
crossed the bridge into town. No injuries, good ice cream, not a bad 
day on the trail.
