I am planning a trip to Janet’s Cabin in the summer of 2021. On an average year, when would the trail be passable to Janet’s Cabin?

When I was there a few weeks ago, they had signs listing the “burn ban” or “fire danger”. In Summit County, it was a level 2 fire ban which would prohibit any fire other than that from a stove with...
Trust me. It was a tough decision as to if we should get an early start or enjoy another Bivvi breakfast, but the forecast of storms around noon and knowing if we got a later start would have put us...
Thanks for the replies. Sure enough, no Ubers early. We wanted to hit the trail earlier than the buses would get us there due to storms forecasted around noon. We caught a hitch near our hostel...
Good point. I am staying there two nights before my hike and one night after my hike, so I will get two chances at that breakfast.

I saw the free bus, but am thinking about trying to get on the trail around 5:30 am which is before the bus starts.

Does anyone know if it would be possible to use Uber in Breck to get to the Segment 7 trailhead from The Bivvi early in the morning?

We are hoping to hitch from Timberline Lake Trailhead to Leadville. Would we have a better chance around the south side or north side of Turquoise Lake?

Thanks for the responses. I will look up the Sheriffs office number for Leadville. I carry a Spot GPS transmitter, so that helps. I wanted to provide her a number just in case.
I do plan on...
Me and my brother in law are backpacking segments 7-9 next week. Is there a phone number/organization I should tell my wife to call if we don’t show up when we are supposed to?

Thanks for all the responses. I am from Texas and rain is just an inconvenience that time of year. I have a pair of Frog Toggs. I will bring the jacket and pants.

I am doing a section of the CT this summer. I am considering taking a rain jacket, but no rain pants. Would this be a mistake? Should I take the pants too?

I am looking forward to my stay at The Bivvi in late July as we section hike the CT!!!

I am doing segments 7 through 9 in late July. I hope there are some decent water sources then.

I have not stayed at either, but I did visit Breck last summer and the Fireside is closer to the center of town. I think The Bivvi is about a 12 minute walk to the main part of town.

I have not stayed at either, but from what I have read Fireside is in the middle of everything and The Bivvi is about a 10-15 minute walk to town.

I looked at Fireside and The Bivvi. I went with The Bivvi.

Good info. Me and a brother in law are flying into Denver in late July and hiking segments 7, 8, & 9. We are spending two nights in Breck and then hitting the trail.

Yes. Me too. I have been watching his videos for segments 7, 8 & 9. Between those videos and the data book, I think I can do what I want if I can cover around 13 miles a day. If not, segment 7...
Check out Hurlgoathiker on YouTube. He has a video series on the CT.
