[at-l] Shelters Just N. of Hanover?

[jeanpaul@comcast.net (Jean-Paul Miller)]

i stayed at trapper john in 2000  it was nice really nice door-less privy
kinda slanted and funny .... the water source was very close to the privy
though..."back home like i told ya before!" "you cant really enjoy...",
<plunk>,"a martini with out an olive"  (yes, i am a fan of M*A*S*H)

i know some one(chilly of 1999 and 2000 not to be confused with chile) that
stayed at velvet rocks while i slept in town on a bench and got rousted by a
police officer (long but funny story). i will say velvet rocks is VERY close
to town ... so that may make you not want to stay there. i figured i was
better off getting rousted by cops then spending the night with people from
town.  i evnetually foudna spot to sleep with out any more rousting

dont know about moose mountain.

cant help you with your second question

good luck have fun
