You’ll find resupply information, equipment checklists, and food and safety recommendations.
Guidebook Serves At-Home Support People – The Guidebook will help you plan your trip. Beyond that, consider this question. Does your sphere include one or more at-home/support folk(s)? To be of assistance to you, they will need one of the CT guides and this CT Guidebook works best for them, with its maps, roads, towns, post office info and much more. Trail travelers often gain Guidebook value by leaving it with their at-home loved one(s).
There are introductory sections on the heritage, natural history and geology of the CT as well as planning guide for traveling the trail. Also included are new full-color photographs that provide a virtual tour of the trail.
To assist cyclists, this new book includes a description and map of each bicycle detour around the Wilderness areas.

Who Built The Trail?
Did you know the Colorado Trail Foundation has been organizing the improvement and maintenance of the Colorado Trail since the CT was first connected end-to-end in 1987? Volunteers are the life-blood of the organization. Without them, there would be no Trail.
