I'm heading out in mid-March too, on March 14.

I am from Australia and will not have family or friendsin the USA for support so will rely on the friends I make on the way for moral support.
I'm starting sometime in late Feb or early March, not entirely sure yet on an exact date. If you start anytime during Feb, March, or early April, I doubt you will have any problem meeting up with other NOBO hikers, particularly at the end of the day near shelters.
I haven't seen any scientific studies on this, but I've been wondering if solo hikers get picked up more quickly while hitchhiking, or if a small group of 2 or 3 hikers gets a ride faster, guess it depends on the size of the vehicle, and the gender/looks of the hikers.
Anyone leaving Springer on Saturday March 13?
The trail was here before we arrived, and it will still be here when we are gone...enjoy it now, and preserve it for others that come after us
I was planning on leaving the tenth, but my mom is coming with me now so it will probably be the eleventh of March instead. I'm very excited and just ordered almost all of the rest of my things tonight!
I will be leaving NOBO either March 13 or 14, have to celebrate my birthday on the 12th. This is my present to myself. Hope to see you all out there.
I plan on hitting the trail on the 11th or 12th.
