In my opinion, the waiting game is harder than the planning. While waiting, I would like to make a list of other thruhikers with start dates so that I will know who I may run into. If you are gonna tackle the CT this summer I would appreciate your responding to this post with a name/trail name and also your start date, and direction of travel. Thanks.

I have no trail name (I am sure that will change), but am starting on June 25, 2012 (may get switched to June 24, 2012). Going from Denver to Durango.
