Introduction to the Continental Divide Trail News

Hiking the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail is becoming more popular every hiking season. I hiked the trail in 1999 when only a handful of hikers were attempting it. Recent seasons show dozens and soon I think we will see hundreds. In my opinion it is the crown jewel of the big three National Trails and the grandeur of this path will inspire many to follow it. I will attempt to post the most recent trail news on this site and give readers a sense of what is expected of them to complete it.
