    Colorado Trail 180 miles SOBO

    Late August early September I hiked from Waterton park to Twin Lakes. Hammocked every night, other than the few I spent in Breckenridge.

    Part One

    Part Two

    Great experience, I got to hang my hammock at 11,950' on Mt Elbert. Maybe one day I'll get to finish the rest of the trail.

    Thank you. My phone is getting old and I don't think the videos aren't as good as they used to be.

    One day I'll upgrade.

    Nice trip. That was some serious hiking. Thanks for taking us along. The title say you were south bound but wasn't this going north bound?

    SOBO. Denver to Durango is mostly in a southwest direction.

    That was the most I've ever hiked. I actually hiked over 200 miles with a few other hikes from Breckinridge before flying home. I really want to hike the collegiate loop now.

    You must be in great shape after this epic hike. Go for it if you have the time. Thanks for the directional info.

    I lost 10 pounds during 12 days of hiking.

    This was the first hike I actually trained for. I was walking 5-10 miles a day for a few months prior.
