NOBO's Thru PA

[bert304]

When are most NOBO's crossing thru Pa around the Port Clinton area?

[Namaste]

I'm thinking mid May for most. I've resupplied thrus in the Wind Gap area end of May thru early June.

4pm est thursday july 4th. most years.

[Jack Tarlin]

Not May. Late June for some, early to mid-July for most.

By early August, for several weeks, there is almost no long-distance traffic in either direction.

I started on April 16 last year and got to Port Clinton on July 8. I was kind of booking it at that point and most of my friends were up to a week behind me.

I left Springer on March 4 and was in Port Clinton on May 19

[Blissful]

I'd say mid to late June for the bulk of them. I went through in early June and there weren't no one no how

[harryfred]

I see the bulk of them come through here mid to late May still a lot early to mid June.

[Papa D]

May would be on the early side for sure - I'd say the first 2 weeks of June would see the "bubble"

Great time to hike in PA. I know a lot of people complain about the heat, but it's really not that bad in the shade of the forest. I hiked for about two weeks in August 07, during a heat wave, and everyone back home was telling me how miserable it was. I didn't really mind it all, with the exception of the Cumberland Valley. Water can be a problem, but not a hike-ender.

I left Springer 3/18 and went through Port Clinton 6/25.

Oh, and I had taken 10 days off at the end of May to go home to see my new grand-son.

I did a SOBO section from the 501 shelter to Harpers around the 3rd week of June and ran into a lot of them around the Doyle. I stayed at the Ironmasters on Jun 20th (I only know this cuz I ran into a few naked hikers the next day) at it was full up.
