CT Thruhike starting ~4 July

#1

I’m planning to hike the CT, Denver to Durango. My most likely start date is 4 July, alternate date is 11 July. I’m packing pretty light (~10.5# base), and I’m figuring ~18-19 miles a day average. Counting ~5 days off-trail, I hope to finish in Durango ~4 August.

Is anyone on a similar schedule?

I will be starting a few days before you, June 29th or 30th.
I will be travelling quite a bit slower than you, I am allowing 6 weeks for the trip finishing August 11th.
You will probably pass me around Copper Mtn. I plan on a day off the trail at Frisco, Salida, Creede and Silverton.
