Ran into two thruhiking duos starting their journeys on Saturday the 19th in Waterton Canyon. Good news - it has been raining on and off in the Denver metro area and eastern slope for days. So, water should not be a huge problem for you July starters. It has been cool and wet. FWIW, they are making a big deal out of the West nile virus situation here locally, so you might want to bring along some DEET. I live less than two miles from the Waterton trailhead, and would glad to assist any thruhiker in any way, provided I am in town. Please do not hesitate to call or email. If you get into a transportation bind, please call, and I’ll gladly shuttle you to the trailhead. Hike on, and have a great time. What a trail!

About the rain, feel like I am living in Seattle rather than Boulder! :slight_smile:

Since I can’t thru hike this year, I am offering assistance to those lucky few that are. I live twenty miles south of segment 3 and can lend a hand in those first few segments as well the the ones along the Collegiate Peaks. Let me know what you need, and I’ll let you know what I can do.
