Colorado Trail 9th Edition (Colorado Mountain Club Guidebook)

Wow adore this! Can’t wait to hit the trail this summer

I got the kindle edition and had it on my recent CT hike. You don’t need this book. The data book gives you all the info you need. But , it was kinda a “nice to have”. It’s overly flowery language could be a little over the top but it’s little nuggets of info of the trail could be informative as you passed through. (I also got a little annoyed by its descriptions of “destructive” fires. Over the top and not super accurate.)I didn’t need it, but it’s detailed directions to trailheads is likely useful too. I would have also benefited from its various maps and charts but never could figure out how to magnify them on my kindle app so they all remained too frustratingly small to be of much use.

Very helpful and detailed! I’m planning a trip for section 6 and this gave me everything I needed from what to expect on trail to travel logistics. Plenty of information I couldn’t find online.

Can't really take this on the trail because it weighs too much. The pages are heavy duty. Lots of helpful info makes for a nice read at home.

Very informative.

If you plan to spend any length of time on the Colorado trail, THIS is the guide for you. A little heavy to bring this big book along for a thru-hike/bike, but great for trip planning or getting info on each section for day hikes. Having said that, get the data book and/or phone app for when you're on the trail. Happy trails!

Really great book, is a great second to the Hiker bible of AWALL for the AT in matters of user friendly-ness. Tear out maps, great descriptions concerning water, campsites, weather, possible snow conditions, gear lists, trailheads, resupply towns, road crossings, and doesn't drag on about things you don't care about! HIKERS HIKE.

This is a comprehensive guide to the Colorado trail. He gives you mileage, tips and pictures of each part of the trail. He provides use to use maps to help picture the trails. The book helps you to plan your trip.

Essential tool for planning your Colorado Trail trip and also lots of handy tips for any hiking trip.Small enough to take on the trail as well but recommend the pocket version for this.

Typisch US-amerikanisch, keine Information fehlt. Schon beim Lesen der Trailbeschreibung hat man das Gefühl auf dem Trail zu sein, nur Wind, Wetter, Gerüche etc. fehlen.

Very nice tool to possess before going on the hike! Quality printing.
