No, sorry to say, but did drive past it a bunch. I knew a woman who lived there, though. I'm sure such people had interesting perspectives.

Mine camp towns like Gilman, or Climax back in the day, had colorful histories. There's a great book on Climax back in the days of the mine town:

One place I definitely recommend you visit to hike (and it's dog friendly) is The Crags in Pike National Forest. It's a beautiful hike and surprisingly close to Colorado Springs. We use this book while in Colorado last time.

This is my new baby, a Xiaomi Mijia Sphere spherical camera. I'm still figuring out how to get the best photos out of it, but managed to get some good panoramic shots and videos from Green and Frozen Lakes in RMNP yesterday. I'll upload the rest throughout the day and link them here if anyone is interested.

Better fitness and movement patterns. Walking 20 miles a day for 6 months while putting all your weight on your passive body structures will fuck you up, yo. I suggest reading Becoming a Supple Leopard for general movement patterns, and then Training for the New Alpinism to understand how to get in shape (though from the sounds of it, you probably won't have time for the latter).

If you are looking for gear knowledge, I'd suggest first laying out your gear on GearGrams or LighterPack. Asking "what do you wish you had" doesn't give us much useful to go on, since it doesn't tell us what you are bringing already; and as MadMaxHeadroom said, what you don't bring is just as important as what you do. Using one of these websites to list your gear will give you a useful way to tabulate weight, and will make your gear list easier to share and easier to read.

Once you've done that, I'd suggest posting to one or a few of the long distance hiking subs. I can't find one specifically for the CT, but here are a few, in descending order of activity:

  • /r/AppalachianTrail
  • /r/PacificCrestTrail
  • /r/ColoradoHikers
  • /r/CDT
  • /r/LongDistanceHiking

an awesome read detailing the advantages that numerous voting systems (including instant runoff) have over the plurality voting system that is commonly used in elections

In the Front Range our water comes from reservoirs filled by snow melt, not the Colorado. Here's an interesting book on the topic.

>Once it started hailing on us we decided to give up and head back.

Yup that's about that time. Check out this book, its basically the RMNP bible: https://www.amazon.com/Rocky-Mountain-National-Park-Complete/dp/1565795504/ref=zg_bs_17296_11?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=TGJYQHRB7VVK19ER9S60

Detailed terrain maps and route descriptions to get to every named feature in the park (and many landmarks that are not officially named.

It is no accident. The state has been actively targeted by the Democratic National Party.

There's actually an ENTIRE paperback out that shows pictures of them all and has some history: Powder Ghost Towns
