[at-l] Questionaire on Shelters



The Dutchess/Putnam County AT Management Committee (NY - Bear Mt Bridge
to CT) is examining possibilities for an additional shelter. I would
like to know thru-hiker preferences for shelter locations.  Yes - I
know you would like it less than 100 yds from the trail on a lake with
swimming - but that isn't going to happen.

1) How far from the trail can the shelter be before you will bypass it?
2) How far from the shelter can water be before you will bypass it?
3) How much elevation gain/loss can there be before you will bypass it?
