I’m stoked for the last push to finish the Colorado Trail. There is only 75 miles left. A little after 9 AM this morning, Mike who works at the Avon gave me a ride to the trailhead, and by 9:30 I began hiking. The trail goes up more than 1,600 feet over 11 miles. As rested as I am, I started well.
Nothing unusual occurred and by 5 PM I reached a creek and campsite. Two other hikers came by about 30 minutes later and pitched their tents. That’s about all the campsite will hold, so there’s a full house tonight.
