| Description |
The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail was designated for its scenic significance. It is also considered the ‘King of Trails’, more difficult than its sister long distance trails, the Appalachian and Pacific Crest. It navigates dramatically diverse ecosystems through mountain meadows, granite peaks, and high-desert surroundings. Upon designation in 1978, Congress identified a corridor for this trail, straddling along the backbone of the North American continent --the Divide-- for the future placement of the trail. When complete, the trail will climb and descend the peaks and cross the high-deserts of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Mexico for 3,100 miles. The trail crosses BLM-managed lands in five states: -Colorado: www.blm.gov/co/st/en/BLM_Programs/national_landscape/nati... -Idaho: www.blm.gov/id/st/en/prog/blm_special_areas/continental_d... -Montana: www.blm.gov/mt/st/en/fo/dillon_field_office/recreation/cd... -New Mexico: www.blm.gov/nm/st/en/prog/recreation/continental_divide_n... -Wyoming: www.blm.gov/wy/st/en/programs/nlcs/Continental_Divide.html Photo: Bob Wick, BLM California |
