The Earl Shaffer Shelter, built in the 1960s is decidedly primitive affair, though its namesake once said he’d like his name removed after the addition of a wooden floor over the original dirt floor had made it “too fancy.” This shelter now resides in the Appalachian Trail Museum in Pine Grove Furnace S.P.
