Report

I started the Colorado Trail on June 30th at 4:59 am. I finished on July 12 at 8:11 pm. I chose to hike solo unsupported from Durango to Denver, taking the Collegiate West route. Since I was unsupported, I did not receive any resupply or trail magic. The only places I got water was from streams along the way. I carried everything from start to finish. I was able to recharge my electronics at Monarch Pass since public sockets are acceptable for unsupported attempts. There was a reroute at Copper Mountain, however it was not in effect when I arrived, so I did not need to take it. I stuck with the traditional route. I recorded my attempt on my Garmin Enduro watch as well as my SPOT.
