In this video I’ll cover the top 5 alternate routes that I took when thru-hiking the CDT (Continental Divide Trail)!
I thru-hiked the CDT in 2022 and out of many alternate routes along the divide, these were my personal favorites. Backpacking the continental divide is a once-in-a-lifetime treat and I hope this video can help narrow your decisions with the huge variety of hiking options along the CDT.
Getting the Jonathan Ley maps:
Download the Avenza Maps App from the App store. Search for “Jonathan Ley” and download the map sets you’ll need for each section. The maps are available for free, but if you’d like to donate to Jonathan to thank him you can do so by 1. Send money via PayPal to Ley's email jonathan@phlumf.com. 2. Email jonathan@phlumf.com and ask him for his home address to mail him a check.
Getting the Farout CDT Alts:
Download the FarOut app: bit.ly/3Km90wY from the app store and purchase either the CDT maps or a FarOut subscription. Alts will be obvious once you are looking at each section.
Please remember to familiarize yourself with LNT principles before visiting any of these areas: lnt.org/.
