The Colorado Trail with Tomcat

Troy, trail name Tomcat, shares his thru hike of the Colorado Trail with listeners. We go over hike planning logistics, camp sites, water carries, equipment, and much more.

We'll also cover the differences between Collegiate East and Collegiate West and why Troy thinks doing the Collegiate loop would also be a great backpacking trip.
