Is "The Gathering" worth it?

[Sly]

Ahhh yes...the mini butler...let's put him to good use this year

Sly come early, on Wednesday. Let's catch up on lost time. You've been out there hiking forever and I need to hear some trail stories

Let me check my schedule..... Yeah, I could probably make it Wed.

Skip it, It's a waste of $ that you could spend on your hike. If you do the hike, then decide next year if you want to spend the $ to come back and socialize about something you already did. Focus on the hike, not the pre-hike BS. IMHO

One of the interesting things about The Gathering is that you'll meet in person a lot of the people you have met on line. You might find that the in person encounters will affect how much credence you will give to their on-line advice.

So true.

I will most likely be going. I met a lot of people on the trail this year who said they would be at the Gathering. While I'm not 100 percent committed, I have high hopes of attending.

I'll be in my Lunar Solo.

It's my tent, although a dilapidated one at this point.
