Day 2 (Segment 25)
random campsite to random campsite
After the pass were a few switchbacks. Switchbacks tend to lessen the steepness, as well as prevent water erosion. Dropping from the treeline the trail went in and out of the trees. There were a couple of nice cascading waterfalls. I stumbled upon a plaque commemorating Gudy Gaskill who was known as the ‘Mother of the Colorado Trail.’ She worked tirelessly to ensure the Colorado Trail became a reality. Although the CT follows the same footpath as the Continental Divide Trail for many miles, it does not share the same designation as a National Scenic Trail.
As Grizzly Peak loomed over and shortly after finding the plaque prominently displayed on a large rock, the trail crossed Cascade Creek via a bridge. Having built several trail bridges myself (on the AT), I can imagine the difficulty in the construction process, including the transportation of materials to this isolated area.
Steady uphill, sidehill climb was next. The trail meandered along with still awesome views. Encountered a ‘false’ pass only to make the turn and see that I had another ½ mile or so to go. False summits, or a pass in this instance, are usually disappointing when you realize you haven’t quite attained the goal. With a very prominent, busting through the pines, Engineer Mountain, it was difficult to be disappointed. A stunning, singular peak reaching to almost 13, 000 ft (12,968’).
A huge meadow with frequent trees was pleasant to stroll through giving a final glimpse of Engineer Mountain. After a short dirt road hike, I took a break at Celebration Lake which some online maps claim to be Bolam Lake. Bolam Pass Rd is also here as the beginning of Segment 26. There were bikers and other day users enjoying the abundant sunshine here.
A few more hours of hiking led me through another nice meadow. I was feeling pretty good as I stopped at a water source for dinner. Oftentimes campsites are dry so I would stop early for dinner and camel up for the next day. Water was plentiful today but tomorrow includes a dry section through Segment 27.
After about 15.9 miles of hiking I found a decent campsite nestled amongst some tall pines. Couldn’t have asked for a better weather day with no clouds in sight all day.

I was done hiking, but I wasn't done hiking. I wanted to finish Segment 8 and since there were less than 4 miles to go I decided to dayhike the rest. It was an easy hike, there and back again. Some old charcoal/coke oven ruins were just before Tennessee Pass.
I camped for the night near the 1st crossing of US24 where there is a large meadow.

Day 7 random campsite (Segment 21) to Spring Creek Pass
The trail follows Snow Mesa for approximately 5 miles. Very easy walking but also completely exposed. The footpath was etched out and clearly visible for miles in this barren landscape which featured a dry pond. Far off in the distance, many peaks are visible, one of which looks like the Swiss Matterhorn but is Uncompahgre Peak. At 14,321, a very prominent Uncompahgre is the highest summit in the San Juan Mountains. The final 2 miles of the segment (and my hike) begin at the edge of the Mesa.
It wasn't too steep but at this point I was anxious to complete this adventure and make it back to my car. I was also beginning to wonder about the mouse in my car. Several bikers were coming up as I hiked down this initially narrow drainage. I didn't see the trailhead until almost there.
Overall a great hike this year. The beginning of the San Juans did not disappoint. The peanut butter worked and fortunately the mouse did not destroy the interior of my car (unfortunate for the mouse though).

Day 2
Segment 9 random pond to Segment 10 random spot
So now into Segment 10. I crossed another bridge at Busk Creek and then over Hagerman Pass Rd. Crossed another dirt road just before entering another Wilderness Area. This one was Mount Massive Wilderness Area, which includes Mount Massive. The second highest point in Colorado at 14,421'. The hiking was pretty good, mostly in the trees with the occasional view. Rather typical actually. Lots of rocks, steep side hill, some switchbacks, etc. Saw some aspens but not many. Large boulders were strewn about on the way to Rock Creek.
Encountered a number of hikers today. A dayhiker with a dog and some other Colorado Trail hikers. One of the CTers, also with 2 dogs, was doing like I was and filling in some gaps. A few hiking the Continental Divide Trail cruised past while I was making an early dinner at North Willow Creek.
I was planning to camp closer to the Mount Massive Trail, but since I had decided not to hike it at this time, I found a suitable spot about .5 mile past the intersection. I ran out of water just as I got to camp. Fortunately, while searching for a suitable branch to hang my food, I found a small spring. There was also the ruins of an old cabin. 13.2 miles for the day.
