One with a group of four was at the Mt. Langdon shelter for a bit in the evening. |

Annoying in waves on the trails and at night. They wouldn't leave me alone at the Mount Parker summit and they took a few samples during my stay. |

| Comments: |
These trails are in good shape overall. I didn't see anyone all afternoon until I got to the shelter. The shelter itself is in serviceable condition - I was the only one spending the night there also. Note there are some signs of bear activity around the shelter - proof positive of this was the bear walking up the nearby brook in the early evening. YMMV. |
