Great Divide Trail 2019

[backtrack213]

Anybody thru hiking the GDT this summer? Really wanna hike this trail but thinks its a little too wild of a trail for me to go it alone. Anybody have advice on hiking solo or planning on getting out there this summer?

I'd seek advice elsewhere based on first hand personal GDT thru hiking accounts.

There have been several GDT thru write ups posted on line.

Thanks Venchka! Definitely gonna check it out

If you can arrange the transportation, Start or End at Mt. Robson Provincial Park, BC. The Berg Lake Trail alone is worth the trip.
Low water season is your best bet for timing.

One more data point. Dredged up from memory.

Thanks I'm hoping to end there but, I keep rolling around the idea of kakwa lake too. That road walk and hitch to Jasper though

[Venchka]

Have you read anything about Kakwa and the porcupines?
I reckon that if you make it past Robson Pass you can make it to
Kakwa. Good luck up there.
