I'm honestly not sure when kickoff weekend is, so I probably won't be there......buuuuuut March 5th is when I plan to hit the Trail and, like you, I CAN'T WAIT! March can't get here soon enough.

We'll be at relatives on the 4th & 5th, so no kickoff for us. But, we'll hit Springer the 8th and I feel like a kid waiting for summer vacation...time is moving so slowly. ;)

Leaving March 15... if I can stand to wait that long. So ready to get out there.

Darn, we're arriving on the 7th, all booked, didn't realize this gathering existed. Might look into small start date shift...

I'm not trying to be a "Debbie-Downer," just looking for clarification: judging from the speakers/topics they say they had last year, it seems this is all information a prospective thru-hiker should already be well-versed in. Is it more catered to those looking into a thru in the near future?

I will be attending the ATKO with my wife and will start on the approach trail on Monday morning.
