Interesting Tidbit regarding Cove Mtn. Shelter
Growing along the trail on the way to Cove Mountain Shelter
When I spoke with Tim this afternoon (Fri. 5/15/15) he told me there was a sign at the shelter warning hikers that porcupines had been visiting the shelter and getting into packs, etc. so the caretakers took the steps off the shelter so the porkies can’t get in!
Porkies love sweat and salt so I can understand the attraction!
(Tim says: The porcupine visited us the night I stayed there. It chewed on the tree stump beneath the shelter. Very loud. A hiker called Bear Bait chased it away.)
This is a photo from 2010 by a hiker named Tinker. Note the stairs.
