[Cdt-l] Cost of hiking the entire CDT?

[David Thibault]

I second the recommendation on Yogi's book -- Invaluable for a newbie to
long distance hiking.

I'd recommend about $5000.  You can and probably will do it for less
(although many spend more) but that should be enough to get you through.
I would recommend not cutting it too close $ wise.  I've seen too many
people run out of funds during thier trip (mostly on the AT).

Day-Late (who has not yet hiked the CDT  - but is planning to this coming
year)
