Ive done a lot of the CDT already. Looking forward to doing the whole thing…

I let this year get away from me or I would be doing this in 2025. I can't hardly wait.

Do you plan on taking the 4runner in your avatar?

 

[JCross]

Yes, taking the 4runner is the plan.

 

[JCross]

The 4runner is coming right along. Time to make plans with dates. More coming soon.

Have you overlanded NM before?

Here is a write up I did on he NMBDR

2 weeks on the NMBDR, ERT, and some wandering.

I was having difficulty deciding which of the 2 to do, the New Mexico Backcountry Discovery Route, Enchanted Rockies trail, or the Shadow of the Rockies trail. I decided I certainly wanted to do the NMBDR heading north (after the urging of @Downs ) and I would decide the way south sometime...

I did the NMBDR the last week of August 2024, of course it crisscrosses the CDT several times, and I've spent time in NM on some of the other areas too, so looking forward to this.
