Day 5 random campsite (Segment 19) to random campsite (Segment 20)
Not a cloud in sight ... anywhere.
Started off chilly and in the 40s. The sun was shining brightly though, so it warmed up quickly. Saw a large pine tree which reminded me of Sequoias ... this was still CO right? There were several more miles in the large meadow/valley. I noticed a fenced area which might have been a spring, but a small sign had DEATH scribed on it. Then up and over a short bump which was through an aspen grove. The trail finally wandered down to Cochetopa Creek.
Cochetopa Creek was flowing very well. The previous few days had intermittent water sources. That would not be a problem today as the trail followed this creek for many miles. I thought I would have to ford it but someone had put a log over it to bridge the gap. Although this area was completely exposed, it was very enjoyable hiking. Easy, unique terrain, fall colors and a meandering creek. One of my favorite sections so far. Did encounter some steep sidehill and had some glimpses of Organ Mountain. San Luis Peak is hiding behind.
A few miles before the end of Segment 19, the trail entered La Garita Wilderness. Wilderness Areas are specially designated areas that remain undeveloped and maintain primeval character. There are additional restrictions to visiting and on the Colorado Trail bicycles are not allowed in Wilderness Areas.
Más de mil millones de dólares invirtió el Ministerio de Inclusión Económica y Social en atender las demandas sociales que por derecho tienen los diversos segmentos de la población ecuatoriana en el 2011, informó la titular del Portafolio, @XimePonceLeon, en el marco del evento de rendición de cuentas del Sector Social del Gobierno Nacional.
En su intervención, la secretaria de Estado, al hablar de los diez principales logros de su gestión, comenzó por enumerar al programa del Bono de Desarrollo Humano (BDH) que tiene una cobertura mayor a 1’.200.000 personas, tras las depuraciones que ha tenido el rol de beneficiarios, a fin de que el mismo llegue a las familias que realmente lo necesitan y puedan ser corresponsables, en este programa se invierte 480 millones de dólares anuales.
Habló de las pensiones asistenciales para 536 mil Adultos Mayores como una retribución al trabajo de toda una vida de las personas que nunca estuvieron en el sistema de aseguramiento social, y 106 mil personas con discapacidad, asà como 28 mil menores en la misma situación, con un egreso de 38 millones de dólares. Como tercer logro se refirió al trabajo por la erradicación de la mendicidad, en donde se ha logrado reducir más de un 50% la incidencia del problema, anunciando, asà mismo, el camino hacia su erradicación completa, la inversión 2011 fue de 1.8 millones de dólares, señaló.
La reducción de la prevalencia de la anemia en 20, 9 por ciento de los niños y niñas atendidos en 11 mil centros infantiles de buen vivir, es otro logró importante del MIES y del Gobierno Nacional, logro sobre el cual también enfatizó la Ministra Coordinadora Doris Soliz, al indicar que en la iniciativa se ha invertido 2, 7 millones de dólares.
La Ministra Ponce resaltó la gestión en desarrollo infantil integral en donde se trabaja en la atención de cerca de medio millón de niñas y niños menores de cinco años de edad en todo el paÃs, introduciendo el componente de corresponsabilidad conjunta entre el Estado, la comunidad y la familia, y la aplicación del nuevo modelo de gestión en base a estándares de calidad, aquà se destacan, por un lado la recuperación del rol del Estado y por el otro, la profesionalización en la atención con la contratación de profesionales parvularias para todos los centros infantiles, en este programa se invierte 138 millones de dólares.
Agregó a los logros la labor de los 83 creados Centros de Protección de Derechos, en Protección Especial, con la mejora de los servicios y el trabajo con mÃstica que se hace en los centros, con la inversión de 10.7 millones de dólares.
Uno de los logros que dio lustre fue la tan ansiada erradicación del trabajo infantil en basurales, en donde se sacó de este peligroso mal a 2.166 niños y niñas, mediante una labor puesta en marcha en 183 cantones, con un presupuesto de 540 mil dólares.
Finalmente la titular del MIES se refirió a la EconomÃa Popular y Solidaria y al impuso dado desde el Portafolio del MIES a los actores de esta nueva economÃa prevista y fundamentada ya en la Constitución. En el sector se han invertido 61. 83 millones de dólares en compras públicas a pequeños productores.
Agregó que el MIES avanza a pasos firmes innovando programas como el caso de la protección a lo largo del ciclo de vida, la reducción de la vulnerabilidad social y de la pobreza. Retos que aspira se irán cumpliendo rápidamente en este Gobierno.

near Winfield Historic Site (Collegiate West 02) to meadow at Texas Creek Road (Collegiate West 02)
The trail crossed in front of a cascading waterfall. The CT confidence markers are not as frequent as the white blazes of the Appalachian Trail, so sometimes it is difficult to determine direction. I was not certain where the trail went since a footpath was not visible. Nowadays instead of paper maps, many hiker use Guthook's Trail Apps for navigation purposes. (I do have a similar CT app.) When Right Here caught up to me he consulted his Guthook App and it indicated to cross in front of the falls.
The final climb up to Lake Ann Pass (12,588') was switchbacked and not too difficult. Lake Ann was passed on the way up. There were some rock fields to navigate as well as some snow fields. I made it to the Pass at 1156 where I saw Right Here again. No sign, but there was a rock cairn. I took a short break to take in the stunning views while clouds were gathering. The footpath was clearly visible on the other side.
Once below treeline, the trail stayed in the woods all the way down. I stopped at a water source to make dinner. Often on the CT I have a dry campsite. I've begun to have an early dinner at a convenient water source. Earlier I saw 2 motorcyclists who were cutting blowdowns - Thanks!
The rest of the day wasn't too bad, mostly downhill, but some very steep, sidehill trail. Don't look down and down fall. I ended up at a large meadow at Texas Creek Road. Once again I had my tent set-up just before a thunderstorm. It didn't last long. There was another tenter here who had started in Durango. 15.7 total miles for the day but did not make it out of Collegiate West Segment 02.

A bridge consisting of three segmental arches, with cut-waters continuing upwards to form triangular refuges. It is built of roughly coursed local slate and gritstone rubble. The central and east arches are formed of sandstone voussoirs, but the W arch was rebuilt in 1675 and again in 1703. Stone panels surmounted by a double ogee capping are set in the apex of each parapet over the central arch. That on the S, which is well preserved, contains the Stuart arms in an enriched frame bearing the date 1636; on top of the cap is a later sundial. The inner or road face is plain. The inner face of the N panel carries the date 1636; its outer face, now weathered, contains the Prince of Wales' feathers in a less elaborate frame than the S panel.

Day 3
Segment 10
random spot to Segment 11 Interlaken Trailhead
Twin Lakes reservoir comprises two lakes. The trail crosses a dam at the far side of the larger lake. There are numerous recreation activities here. Camping possibilities are also abundant. Interlaken Historic Resort is located on the far side.
Phone battery was almost dead but just enough to reserve a room for Friday night at Inn the Clouds hostel in Leadville. Tonight I camped near Mount Massive Trailhead. Camping is allowed almost everywhere on Halfmoon Creek Road. The night before I climbed Elbert a few years ago, I camped along the road so I had a spot in mind that overlooked the creek. Unfortunately, someone turned in there just as I drove up. Oh well, I found another spot.
14.8 trail miles for the day; +1 to hike back to my car.
