Thru hikers Sweet Potatoes, Tin Man, and Half Pint should be cruising through the central section as we speak.

I met them all last Wednesday at Punchbowl Shelter about 50 miles from Shenandoah Natl. Park.

They are the front wave of thru hikers that started in February.

Will most of them be through SNP by the first week of June?

They had some wild stories to tell , entertained everyone at the campfire .
Hiking through 3 feet of snow and losing the trail due to wind blown snow covering the blazes on trees.
