I find myself in Boulder with some serious free time on my hands, and am considering hiking the Colorado Trail. I have Jonathan Ley’s CDT maps on CD, but lack a copy of the CT maps. Is one of the two routes preferable? Also, does anyone have any ideas on where I could print a set of maps and how much they would be?

Bankrobber,
The maps Black toe Bob is refering to are quite good. I used them when I hiked the CT in '02. They can be printed out on virtually any scale you wish. Due to the exacting efforts of the map makers while making this product, the Colorado Trail has the distinction of being the most accuratly maped hiking trail in the world! They are well worth the investment. Have a great hike.
