Hi everyone. I’ve been section hiking the A.T. for a few years. My dream was to thru hike it, but I have 3 young children. There is no way I can leave them for 5 to 6 months, or my job! So I’ve been researching shorter long distance trails. The Colorado Trail is high on my list. I have family and friends in the Denver area to offer me support. My husband gave me his blessing and my work already approved a 6 week leave of absence, and I will be planning my thru hike in 2017.
So I would like to hear from others who have thru hiked this trail. How long did it take you? When did you start and finish? I read that July to August is a good time to start your hike.
Thank you in advance.
