  • COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail
    CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL DAY & OVERNIGHT HIKES: COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail THE CENTENNIAL STATE The Colorado Rockies are the quintessential CDT experience! The CDT traverses 800 miles of these majestic and challenging peaks dotted with abandoned homesteads and ghost towns, and crosses the ancestral lands of the Ute, Eastern Shoshone, and Cheyenne peoples. The CDT winds through some of Colorado’s most incredible landscapes: the spectacular alpine tundra of the South San Juan, Weminuche, and La Garita Wildernesses where the CDT remains at or above 11,000 feet for nearly 70 miles; remnants of the late 1800’s ghost town of Hancock that served the Alpine Tunnel; the awe-inspiring Collegiate Peaks near Leadville, the highest incorporated city in America; geologic oddities like The Window, Knife Edge, and Devil’s Thumb; the towering 14,270 foot Grays Peak – the highest point on the CDT; Rocky Mountain National Park with its rugged snow-capped skyline; the remote Never Summer Wilderness; and the broad valleys and numerous glacial lakes and cirques of the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. You might also encounter moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, marmots, and pika on the CDT in Colorado. In this guide, you’ll find Colorado’s best day and overnight hikes on the CDT, organized south to north. ELEVATION: The average elevation of the CDT in Colorado is 10,978 ft, and all of the hikes listed in this guide begin at elevations above 8,000 ft. Remember to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and extra food, and know that a hike at elevation will likely be more challenging than the same distance hike at sea level.

  • Missouri Mountain – West Ridge
    Missouri Mountain – West Ridge Summit Elevation: 14,067 feet Elevation Gain: 3150’ Round trip: 5.25 miles Difficulty: Class 2 with a brief Class 3 pitch Climbers: Rick Crandall, Laura Welch, Shari Applebaum & Emme, the Australian terrier August 28, 2011: Missouri Mountain is located near Buena Vista in the Collegiate Peaks in the Sawatch Range. We decided to go for Missouri mainly because Laura is in part a Kansas City girl – we had no hesitation despite the July deaths on Missouri of a Boulder doctor and his daughter, both experienced hikers, at about 12,000’. The Colorado fourteeners do claim lives each summer – it’s not clear whether the prevalent reasons are over- confidence, a loose, untested rock or just bad luck. For weeks the weather in Aspen and surrounding areas including Buena Vista has been following the daily monsoon pattern of clear in the morning and rain clouds gathering just after noon transitioning to electrical storms later in the afternoon. We were getting tired of waiting and so decided to make an early morning start with an estimated summit at 11am so we could be off the high terrain by 12:30 or so – getting wet is not the problem, getting electrocuted is. Although as we learned, wet rocks are no fun either. Shari is a new fourteener climber, this was to be her second – but she’s fit and braver then the average bear – she’s a photo-journalist specializing in the insanely rough locales in the Middle East and elsewhere, for example, including Yemen, Pakistan and North Korea.
