Started hiking at 8:15 - best yet. We had a long climb out of Eckville. Made the 8 miles to Allentown LT where we ate lunch. A group of boy scouts were there. We talked to the leader then moved on. Next met a gut and his wife doing all of Pa. in short hikes. Then we met 4 young guys hiking south. Crossed Rt. 209 and had planned to eat at the restaurant but it didn't open until 5 P.M. She let us in for Coke though. We met 5 more people along the trail before arriving at New Tripoli Shelter at 3 P.M. It was tiny - fits 3 comfortably. Dan was there He was taking a short day. Three hikers came in and set up a tent. Then 2 thru hikers came - Jim Hodges and Bill Rhombin. Had tuna a-la-king for supper - good.
