Catch-up. Trail Magic 3 on 20 April. Reached Tumbling Run shelter (pictured) just in time to meet the volunteer caretaker Kurt (and his dog Mocha), who gave me lots of great advice on places to stay and the trail north.
A very well-maintained shelter and shows the caretaker's sense of humor (solar/lunar light switch and doorbell on the privy). The two shelters are for snoring (left) and non-snoring (right) hikers.
Beautiful stream and gushing springs nearby.
Joined that night by thru-hikers (Sourpatch et al.) starting in Georgia, moving north quickly. Really enjoyed the banter and their advice.
Nice to have a snoring shelter.
