I liked the section breakout and the elevation changes that were shown in each segment. There are comments in the text to certain features that are not shown on the map, which makes you turn to other resources to locate them. Overall: Worth the money, but room for improvement.

I had been thinking for some time to do a backpacking trip on the Continental Divide Trail. I knew that I would need some assistance.
I purchased this book in the fall of 1999. I spent the subsequent six months planning my adventure. Since I had only 7 days to spend on the trail, I decided to hike Segments 24, 25 and 26 (from Winfield to Hancock).
I planned my trip exactly form this book. When I got on the trail July 1, 2000, it was if I had my own personal trail guide with me. I knew exactly what to expect, how far I would hike each day, where the water and the good camp sites were. The driving directions were very accurate to the trailhead, the mileage and guidemarkers were also accurate.
Each night I camped at the locations I expected and found water where the author said it would be.
I finished my 7 day hike within 2 hours of my expected time! Never had I been on the CDT before!
If you have any interest in the CDT I would urge you to purchase this book. I'm now planning my adventure for subsequent year from this book.

Last summer I hiked the CDT, through the wemmenuche wilderness in southern Colorado. This book was used every day to help us out of our 12 day expedition. The details of the trails described in the book are written so well that I often reread parts of it to put a picture in my mind of the awesome land. Tom Jones does an outstanding job. I will keep this book forever, use it on the trail again, and someday pass it to my children.
