Day 3

Today I finished up Section 14 of the CT and then hit highway 50 back into Salida. There is A LOT of hiking in this section but there are a few spots where the trail is pavement smooth as it winds it's way through the Aspens.

This is just as the trail starts to drop down to the Mount Shavano trailhead.

I had about 18 hours of moving time over the 3 days and covered just under 140 miles. I consumed 27.3 gallons of water (not including the liquids I purchased along the way).
