This shelter register was left at Eliza Brook Shelter, 7.5 miles north of New Hampshire Highway 112, at Kinsman Notch.  It was started on 9 August 1997, and was packed out after the last entry on 27 September 1997.  It was provided for inclusion here by James "TurboLax" Ward, a 1997 Southbound Appalachian Trail Thru-Hiker.  The register's 67 pages have been scanned, and are displayed here in order and unedited.   To aid in finding a page of interest, the caption for each page indicates the date of the first entry on that page.  To read a page of the register, just click on the thumbnail for a full sized view.

        Apparently, 1997 had a very wet Autumn in New Hampshire.  Many entries had comments about the rain.  Check out the back cover of this register, the last thumbnail above.  Those are raindrops drawn in the lower left hand corner, with the words "It's been raining for too long" mixed among the raindrops.
