[pct-l] June 1st Sobo Kickoff



While I won't be hiking SOBO this year, I will still be around before setting off for the summer (maybe on the CDT).  As I don't live too far away, I would probably show up for a KOP, but not on June 1 (its a Wed, and I have to work).  June 3-5 is the weekend.

> Though a Nobo PCT hike normally holds many advantages upon A Sobo hike, this year seems to be the exception, mainly because of high chance of the northwest forests being closed in summer to hikers due to the drought induced fire hasard.

> If we can orgenize some kind of kickoff around June 1st at manning, more people might start south together, and therfore we won't have to hike alone, and miss the social part of a thruhike, which in my opinion, is a very big part of the thruhiking expreince.
