[at-l] Lost

[Jim Smith]

It's been about three years since I've hiked the AT around Lost Mtn.
Shelter. I didn't remember there being much of a parking area at U.S. 58 so
I tried  looking up the location on Google Maps. I couldn't find a parking
spot north of the shelter, but it seems like there should be
reasonably-sized road pullouts there.

There is only a small road pullout south of the shelter:

If you're looking for a safe place to leave a car north of Lost Mtn.
Shelter, I would suggest parking at Beartree Recreation Area. It's managed
by the National Forest Service, so it's going to be safer than parking
along the road.

An access trail starts at a parking lot at Beartree's swimming pond and is
just a skip and a jump off the AT.
