Shelters
Hikers on the Greenway are fortunate to have four, 3-sided shelters along the Trail.

Spiltoir Shelter
Hiking Northbound from Mt. Monadnock, the Spiltoir Shelter was built in the summer of 2006 by the MSGTC, this was originally a tent platform for years. We are thankful that Tom Spiltoir and his family allowed us the have this shelter on their land. This shelter is 6.3 miles from the top of Mt. Monadnock.

Crider Forest Shelter
12.1 miles North of the Splitoir Shelter is the Crider Forest Shelter. Built in the fall of 1998 by the MSGTC, this shelter is on SPNHF land. Many of the materials for this shelter were donated by Carlisle Lumber in Stoddard NH.

General Washington Shelter
13.5 miles North of the Crider Forest Shelter is the General Washington Shelter. This is the oldest shelter on the Greenway Trail system. Built in the 1970’s by The AMC NH Trail Crew and hosted by Phil Barker and family on their land. Hikers like staying here and walking into Washington Center at night to buy some ice cream at the only store in town. Note, water is available at Phil Barker's house.
