On the last night we were backpacking, we were at a wonderful shelter called Birch Glen, with a cabin for about 12 people and three different tent sites. The cabin even had a front porch! We had the place to ourselves until dinner time. The a group of about 12 people arrived - middle school summer campers and two counselors from the Farm and Wilderness group. The kids and I cooked dinner at the fire pit and then cleaned up for bed by around 8 - we wanted to hike out early the following g morning. While we cooked and ate, the counselors had trouble getting help with their meal from their campers and distant thunder rumbled in the valley below.
