I love Mt LeConte, and I usually go each February to stay a night. Crowds are low and the shelter is the only way to go. Why pay so much to rent a cabin with 2 meals when you can get a cheap reservation at the shelter! Only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 because you can't build a fire anymore. A fire would be nice on these cold February nights, but had to settle for some hot chocolate. Love my national parks!
