CT Trip Photos

[Stuart Burke]

I got back from my Colorado Trail hike last week and I wanted to post a few photos here. I would like to do a full trip report eventually but I am going to busy the next few weeks planning my next hike (hopefully).

I started June 22nd in Denver and got off the trail July 6th near Buena Vista. I had originally planned on hiking for another two weeks but the trip took a lot more out of than I thought it would so I decided to get off the trail.

Hiking thru the Buffalo Creek burn area on the second day.

Lost Creek valley

Heading towards the divide and georgia pass

Climbing towards the crest of the Ten Mile Range

Nice meadow on the way out of Copper Mountain

Mount of the Holy Cross on the western horizon

Mt Princeton and the lower Arkansas Valley, In the distance there is rainstorm passing over the northern Sangre de Cristo range

I'll show my ignorance…what is the "CT"?

Colorado Trail, I believe.

Yes CT is the colorado trail. I edited my original post for clarification. I also added some more photos last night.

Stuart,

Good photos!!!!!! Are you a cartographer? I did my trail maintenance in Segment 12 then picked up my 76 year old friend at the Avalanche Trailhead on July 6.

Small world?
