This lean-to was built for the Finger Lakes Trail by the FLTC Alley Cat Crew in September 1996 to replace a dirt floor lean to at N 42° 02.024 W 078° 46.162 which is still standing but not very inviting (see pictures)

There is also a bivouac area on site and a spring (untested - be prepared to treat the water) about 100 feet from the lean-to. Lean-to should sleep 6 (2 rows of 3 sleeping bags). An outhouse was constructed on site in 1996 when the lean-to was built. Lean-to's along the FLT are free for overnight use on a first-come-first-served basis.
Special care was made to note that porcupines are active in this area.
