Just got my permit but when I looked at 10 AM there were 99+ available permits for entering at Mono Pass exiting Whitney on Sept. 1.? I checked and double checked my confirmed permit. Judy McGuire

I noticed the Reds Meadow Road Closure page has been updated. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/inyo/alerts-notices/?cid=fseprd1127643 The road will be open Thursday through Sunday for most of July and

I was lucky in 2018 in that I passed through the busy mountain bike areas mid-week so I didn't encounter too many large groups. Anyone planning this hike should try to avoid these areas on weekends if

On a Sunday in early Sept 2015 I counted 120 bikes passing me going south from Monarch Pass. Put me in a foul mood for the rest of the day. Cherish the wilderness and hope it never allows bikes. CO is

A few years ago the CT Foundation said they were actively encouraging MTB's on the trail because "It should be open to everyone'. I quit the foundation after that and told them why. Let us hope this

That’s true on many parts of the CT. Actually the place where I remember the most bikes was right after Monarch Crest heading southbound. For the most part, bikers were courteous but it does

One of the downsides of the loop and indeed much of the non-wilderness portions of the CT is the presence - and active encouragement from the CT Foundation - of mountain bikers.

I was looking into Collegiate Loop logistics today and learned that the Clouds Hostel in Leadville provides shuttles to Twin Lakes for $45-50. Leadville is accessible by bus from Frisco via Summit

Trail angel. :-)

Your story makes me glad about about my decision to turn around and go pick up a couple of hikers at the pass and take them into Lake City a couple of years ago. It took me a few seconds to process

In 2014, there was supposed to be a regular shuttle sponsored by trail angels in Lake City but for some reason it didn’t show up. Since the shuttle time was at noon, there was theoretically time to

It is interesting that The Colorado Trail book states that the distance from the CT (Spring Creek Pass) to Lake City is 17 miles and goes on to say: ".. probably too far for most backpackers to travel

Getting to Lake City was difficult for me as well. There was a lot of traffic but no one stopped at the trailhead for at least an hour. ?I started walking and a few miles later someone took pity on

I took the bus ride. It was very pretty too and a comfortable ride. Wifi on both Bustang and bus to Durango.

I agree after a strenuous multi day hike taking the train would be a relaxing means to return home. Particularly when it travels through Colorado [email protected]> wrote:

On the CT the worst hitch for me was to Lake City.? No traffic on rd.? Waited over an hour.? Meanwhile, hikers wanting ride piled up.? Luckily a pickup happened by and gave us a ride in rain (very

Yes, it isn’t fast. However the Outrider to Bustang trip from Durango to Denver is beautiful and inexpensive. And it drops you off a block from easy transit to the airport.

There aren't many long hikes with transportation and resupply as easy as the JMT. Having done some longer hikes I didn't find there to be much of a problem on the CT. Hitch hiking was necessary, but

I have hiked portions of the CT and will concur that resupply is difficult. There are no facilities close to anywhere - other than maybe Copper Mountain Resort - and getting to Salida from the trail
