Why Did I Quit the Colorado Trail?
After 2 weeks out on the Colorado Trail and 10 days of actual backpacking – I QUIT!
DONE.
In my last post on the Colorado Trail I had thoughts of stopping. Apparently, when I put my mind to something – I DO IT! Even if it’s something negative – or was this?
I certainly learned one thing about myself, I’m not a long distance hiker. I know I can backpack for days and maybe do 100 miles or so but not the long distance of the Colorado Trail. I did 156 miles of the Colorado Trail and decided I wanted back in my RV so I could explore more of Colorado. (And I did, all summer! Posts to come.)
I do feel like a loser, quitter and all around bad friend since Stephanie was relying on me to finish with her.
I guess I’ll stick to day hiking and backpacking.
