We parameterize the orbital history by the time since crossing within 2. 5 rvir of the cluster centre and use our catalog to estimate the probability density over a range of this parameter given a set of present-day projected (i. e. observable) phase space coordinates.

We find that both the ROCKSTAR and BDM halo finders track halos extremely well; in both, the number of halos which do not have physically consistent progenitors is at the 1-2% level across all halo masses.
