Two weeks ago I did (more or less) the designated CDT in RMNP that many thru-hikers do do not see.
Thought some here may appreciate the report:

Though it does not make logistic sense for many thru-hikers (need a canister, permit, more or less end up in the same place
you started) it is a beautiful loop. If you have the time, a slack pack option can easily be had from the Shadowcliff Hostel of roughly
25 miles and 3000' gain. Esp with a day pack, doable for many thru-hikers. No permit or bear canister needed for day hiking. :)
