    I agree. Gatherings at this point are probably not the safest place to be. But on that note, a walk in the woods is probably the safer bet than me going to work every day with hundreds of people still traveling around.

    No cancellation per their website, at least as of now. https://www.traildays.us/

    It's odd that the event website hasn't been updated, but a regional news station is reporting as of 3/20 that it's cancelled. The local mayor and a town statement are cited:

    All businesses that derive income from the AT are going to take a significant hit. Many will not survive the pandemic.
