[pct-l] RE: Typical SoBo start date

[Daniel Cohen]

Ned,

 

My research shows that there is no documented formula like a NOBO hike for
when it is appropriate to begin a SOBO.  My research also revealed that most
begin after 20 June.  I've looked back 10 years.  I'm beginning SOBO on 25
June unless there is a dramatic change in the weather.

This may be a stupid question and certainly I ought to know this, but when
is the average time when the South-bounders start out from Manning? I seem
to recall it is around June 1st....
