Does anyone know if there is reliable water at Melville Nauheim shelter, just north of Rt. 9 near Bennington and on the Glastonbury loop?
Hi Dave, unfortunately I don’t have my GMC resources at hand, but the vast majority of shelters are near reliable water and I’d bet that this one is no exception.
