I didn't see young trees near those 2 peaks .Perhaps it'll take a long time for that area to regrow.
I saw an elk on the last miles back. He saw me first, and was running along the meadow. We...

CR,
So many thanks. First made till segment 6, resupplied in Fairplay. Nice little town, felt very good vibe, had dinner there. hitchhiked back to kenosha pass and made segment 6. From there to...
Sure we will CT, hoping to meet you on the trail and chat.
See you,

Glad having kept the hike to CT, instead of a last minute option, thanks a lot CR. Arrived here in Denver, it's hot! What do you think will be the temperatures till segment 5, and the loops, the lows...
Ok ,
Sending
Agree Rob, will resupply in Jefferson, makes no sense when still in 3 in Bailey. Then the trail till segment 4 and the loop. Will have Natgeo map 105 in Denver, and any navigation doubts will contact...
Ok guys.....colorado_rob, Dogwood always, gravityman, and others, agreed .
CT, here we go!! Like very much this loop idea.
Any navigation tips for the LCW? Network of trails to confuse, or only...
Definitely agree with your Mama; she's a wise lady. Continue following her lead....
Got a tip, at segment 4 leaving for a loop to Kenosha Pass. Someone have information like distance distance, navigation?
Done Shenandoah with my sons last year. Man, it was awesome. First five days raining day/night, but worth every mile.
Other suggestion??
We're arriving in Denver this weekend, planned to hike the C.Trail for 12 days.
Uncommon snowpack this year, most segments impassables ( 6,7,8,9,12,13,14,15,16,20-28 ).
Any ideas for us moving...
Arriving in Denver this weekend, but snow in segments 6,7,8,9,12,13,15,16,20-28.
We have 12 days, hiking segments 1-5 will be too short.
Any ideas flying from Denver?
Hi, really uncommon snow levels this year on Colorado Trail
Snow unpassable segments 6,7,8,9,12,13,15,16,20-28....We´re arriving in Denver this week, for 12 days hiking.
Segments 1-5 is too...
Weather forecasts and CT Association reporting packs of snow, also deep in segments 6, 7,8,9, 12,13,15,16.
Any lower altitudes, better alternatives from Denver?
Agree, the CT foundation book is a must, but not in a good size. I will print the section pages and take them. Again is a good section choice, some convenient transportation options.
Maps arriving next week, any particular acclivities?
Slo-goén,
Checking 1-7
- where I can obtain the topo maps
- is it a good place to observe wildlife?
- too step?
Hi Everyone,
Again I´ll have 12 days from 1th July, and instead of the AT, will hike CDT. Any section´s suggestion?
If it´s not very far from an airport, easier to start. But if you think it´s...
Hi Slo,
We started in Trumbo Hollow sobo till Rockfish 9 days, after that my boys wanted to check d.c....But they loved the trail.
Meet nice people along the path, and were well treated at...
VA was wonderful, really. Barred Owls, hawks, bears, and lots of rain ( even too much... )
Thank you all for the help and recommendations.
See you in the AT,
We'll have 11 full days on the trail from Trumbo Hollow sobo. Almost sure we'll pass Rockfish gap. Any suggestion to get out and go back to Washington? Maybe after Harpers Creek shelter around Nash...
Roger GoldenBear, I'll take the shuttle. I hope Trumbo Hollow and then going south will be as nice as starting already in Shenandoah.
Thought about taking a bus through Hwy 66 , stopping near Linden and start sobo on Trumbo Hollow Trailhead. Is this viable, or only by shuttle?
tdoczy,hatchee, george, crushed grapes, old chief, flypaper, slo-goén, chknfngrs; Thank You very much guys, helping us decide. We'll land in DC, then try a shuttle to Front Royal, and sobo.
Any...
