The Colorado Trail is the only guide available for thru-hikers, day hikers, mountain bikers, trail runners, and equestrians to the extraordinary Colorado Trail that stretches 468 miles from Denver to Durango. The completely revised 7th edition includes text and map revisions for several sections where reroutes of the trail have taken place, as well as 90 colour pictures, 28 segment maps, elevation profiles, integrated GPS waypoints, town maps and mountain bike detours of Wilderness Areas.The Colorado Trail (CT) is one of the premier scenic long trails in North America. It winds its way through endless fields of wildflowers to windy mountain passes, from wild mountain rivers and streams to winding trails through old growth forests. The CT crosses eight mountain ranges, seven National Forests, six Wilderness Areas and five river systems. Starting near Denver at 5,500 feet and ending near Durango at 7,000 feet, the CT gains and loses almost 76,000 feet in elevation over 468 miles. New to this edition are revisions of four of the 28-segment trail descriptions including sections 8, 11, 23 and 24.

From the diverse scenery of its city parks to the 14,115-foot summit of Pikes Peak, the Colorado Springs area has hiking adventures for everyone.The variety of hikes in the Pikes Peak region is astounding. If you are looking for an easy stroll close to town for rumination, a full-day adventure that will leave you gasping for air, or something in between, The Best Colorado Springs Hikes has 20 superb Colorado Springs trails.If you have ever wondered about that big mountain looming overtown, you'll find a couple of paths to its summit. Lovers of geology can explore incredible sandstone formations in the Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Open Space, or the smooth granite of the Lost Creek Wilderness. For the less experienced, start with the Greenway Trail that wends its way along Monument Creek through downtown. On the other hand, if you have a good deal of hiking experience you can try the Barr Trail to the top of Pikes Peak -- 14 miles of steep hiking that is not easy and notparticularly accessible.

This completely rewritten and redesigned second edition is organised by mountain range-the only book you will need to find the most popular route up each of the 54 Colorado 14ers. Each description includes clear, concise directions for driving to the trailhead, where to park, a map of the route, difficulty rating, elevation profile, distance, and estimated round-trip time. All of the routes have been approved by the Colorado Fourteeners Initiative, the non-profit that has built or rebuilt 21 of these routes and seeks to educate all 14er climbers about protecting and conserving these mountain routes. The Colorado Mountain Club Foundation receives, administers and disburses funds for charitable, scientific, literary and educational organisations that collect and disseminate information regarding the Rocky Mountains.
