How would a basic hiker hike such a trail. I’ve seen pictures of people, who claim to have hiked the Appalachian trail who don’t look like Grizzly Adams or have End of the world survival skills.

So, how Would somebody like myself hike this sort of trail/ I can do a day or two on my own, but probably not much more than that.

If they built a trail is it, by definition, still a wilderness?

I hiked for a couple days in Estes Park with a dear friend.

What a wonderful experience!

Don’t do it when winter is coming or they might not find you until next spring. Happened to an acquaintance of mine.

"Fancy a challenge?" Yeah, do the trail right now...

Got in the park for free as a Veteran. Did the Gem Lake Trail, Bear Lake Loop, drove around a lot of the rest and stayed in an Estes Park motel. That was plenty.

The wolves that our idiot queer Governor has been releasing in the mountains will appreciate the extra protein. Wolves like to play with their food too.

And how many minutes before an idiot dies?

Death in Grand Canyon, fascinating book chronicles every death since man first entered. Very well researched and written. Learned a lot about survival and stupidity
