[at-l] Gathered?

[RockDancer]

Heading north, the shelters are:
Rice Field
Pine Swamp Branch
Bailey Gap
War Spur
Laurel Creek
Sarver Hollow
When you reach the ridge after VA 42, Sinking Creek Valley, there is a small
sign on a tree that says something like "this is the Eastern Continental
Divide". So the Answer is Laurel Creek Shelter. Sarver Hollow Shelter is on
the downslope from the ridge after VA 42. 

So, good logic all. Some of the guesses from the Gathering ranged from NY to
TN. --RockDancer

What a great question!  OK, I'm trying to remember just where the Eastern
Continental Divide runs, and how far north might it intersect with the
trail.  The New River flows to the Ohio, so I'm guessing it's one of those
first few shelters north of Pearisburg, before the trail turns east.  Maybe
Pine Swamp Branch?  If not that, then Rice Field, or even Doc's Knob S of
P-burg.
