[pct-l] Ride to the ADZPCTKO from the trail.

[J M]

Shepherd, 

Thank you so much for your reply. I feel confident enough with the response to 
reserve my space at the Kick Off. I was in Ned's Snow Skills class this weekend 
and he asked me if I was going to kick off. I told him that I wasn't planning on 
it because I might be too far to get a ride. He told me to get on the PCT-L list 
to find out about getting a ride to and from. The community around this list is 
great!  

As for my hiking speed - I'm planning on slow and easy to start. I pushed myself 
to almost failing this weekend during the the Snow Skills class. Granted, I was 
hiking at over 8000 feet with a full pack on snow shoes but it definitely let me 
know my current physical limitations. I'm not running a race. I'm excited to be 
outside and on the trail, whatever that ends up meaning to me. I'm very grateful 
to Mountain Education for allowing me an opportunity to get my eyes opened prior 
to starting. Apparently I have some training to do - LOL.

There are a number of us who drive around picking up hikers from the trail and 
driving them back to the Kick-Off.  Many of us are also willing to make 
pre-arranged stops on our way down there to pick up hikers along the way.  As 
Yogi indicated, this should not be a problem.  It would be helpful and although 
you did not mention it in your posting, I am sure that you will as the date 
comes closer, to say where you will be and when, so that we can meet you there.  
If you start off on 4/9, depending on your speed and the snow and rain, you 
could be anywhere between Big Bear and Agua Dulce by the Kick-Off.  I hope that 
you are planing to go slow and stop off for some extended zero days or you may 
hit the Sierras before the snow has milted. 
 
Shepherd
