But we won’t be at the Kick-Off.  We will be at the PCTA’s Trail Fest  http://www.pcta.org/trailfest08.asp  where you can get tons of information about the trail and how to hike it, see all of the latest equipment, hear directly from the experts, and support the non-profit organization with a mission to protect, preserve, and promote the PCT.

Switchback replies: I respect everyone's views about various participation at hiker events.  As everyone knows, BuzzSaw and L-Rod are my buddies, but I enjoy attending the April Kickoff and supporting it (by the way it is the same with Scott over at PostHoler hosting my forum there).

As a major inducement to get them to attend this year's Kickoff, I am offering them co-hosting duties at the Pirate's Lair table and seminar.  This is a rare honor and treat.  This includes goof off time with the Trail Pirate and Stinky the Lair mascot skunk.  I thank you for your attention and consideration in this matter.
