I was wondering where the majority of the thru-hikers are in their northern trek by now??

Many NOBO hikers are scattered from Shenandoah NP up thru NY/NJ.

Yep, I calculate a thumbnail range based on an April 1st start date and 12-16 miles hiked per day.

In this case the cluster of the NOBO bubble should fall between mile 984 and 1312. Of course some will lag while others lead.

I'm in Palmerton today in the midst of a low hiker range. People bunched up for World Cup viewing. I took two days off for ballgames and when I came back, I've only seen 2 thrus.
