Water in Mt. Rogers area

How is the water situation in the Mt. Rogers area, or the 100 miles or so north of Damascus? I expect to be hiking there in a couple of weeks.

I’m interested in the 50 miles north of Damascus. Are any of the water sources at the shelters dry?

Plenty of water north of Damascus along the Virginia Creeper then as you climb Whitetop Mt there is a PVC spring with great water just north of Buzzard’s Rock. Camped right next to it during a violent thrunderstorm. On to Mt Rodgers and beyond to Grayson Highlands should not be a problem for water.

Old orchard and lost mt. shelters are dry,but there is water other places along the trail,shuld not be a problem.
