How long it takes to hike the Colorado Trail
Has anyone hiked the Colorado Trail? I am planning on hiking the whole thing starting in Durango this coming summer and just wanted to know about how long it takes most people to finish the whole trail. If you know, please say. Thanks

I think the trail is about 450 miles, and most people usually do it in 4-6 weeks. Former AT hikers are used to 100 mile weeks, others prefer shorter days to avoid being high during the afternoon thunderstorms. It's up to you. The forums at www.trailforums.com and the journals there are a good place to get your questions answered.
