About 120 miles- 12/13 days. No resupply.<br><br> <br><br>I would like to park my car at Spring Creek, then Hitch back to Wolf Creek<br>and then follow the CDT back to my car at Spring Creek.<br><br> <br><br>I can't remember South Fork. Is that a good place to find a motel for the<br>night between the two points/passes? And maybe a ride out to Wolf Creek the<br>next day?<br><br> <br><br>This would probably be hike number 2. First hike will probably be in the La<br>Garita Wilderness for 7- 8 days with 1 or 2 friends- nice loop beginning at<br>Eddiesville TH that will end with a summit of San Louis Peak and then out at<br>Eddiesville TH. I would then drive over to Spring Creek Pass for the<br>Weninuche hike.<br><br> <br><br>Right now this looks like a solo trip for me.<br><br> <br><br>I don't think I have the maps for this section anymore. I hiked it once<br>before like 16 years ago and want to do it again.<br><br> <br><br>Early planning, I know, but I want to do this.<br><br> <br><br>Arizona Trail Question: Anyone hiked it? I think I am interested in<br>starting on the northern end in the fall and I need some suggestions on<br>doing the AZT and how did you get spotted at the start of the trail? <br><br> <br><br>-Trew<br><br> <br><br> <br><br>-------------- next part --------------<br>An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br>URL: <<a href="http://mailman.backcountry.net/pipermail/cdt-l/attachments/20150928/f82f21d8/attachment-0001.html" target="_blank">http://mailman.backcountry.net/pipermail/cdt-l/attachments/20150928/f82f21d8/attachment-0001.html</a>><br><br>------------------------------<br><br>Subject: Digest Footer<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Cdt-l mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Cdt-l@backcountry.net" target="_blank">Cdt-l@backcountry.net</a><br><a href="http://mailman.backcountry.net/mailman/listinfo/cdt-l" target="_blank">http://mailman.backcountry.net/mailman/listinfo/cdt-l</a><br><br><br>------------------------------<br><br>End of Cdt-l Digest, Vol 96, Issue 3<br>************************************<u></u><u></u></p></div></div></div></blockquote></div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
