Colorado Trail Completer 

   Congratulate the Colorado Trail Pioneer with this unique "completer" marker.

     The Colorado Trail is a long-distance trail running for 486 miles (782 km) from the mouth of Waterton Canyon southwest of Denver to Durango in Colorado, United States. Its highest point is 13,271 feet (4,045 m) above sea level, and most of the trail is above 10,000 feet (3,000 m). Despite its high elevation, the trail often dips below the alpine timberline to provide refuge from the exposed, storm-prone regions above. Though not nearly as long as some of the other thru hikes in the US, the Colorado trail presents with its own challenges... Typical Colorado weather that can change in a few minutes as well as the high elevations, exposure, and remote areas of the trail , can make this a life changing experience and motivate people to go bigger and continue thru hiking.  When you finish the entire trail you are then distinguished as a "COMPLETER" 

     The Colorado Trail was built and is currently maintained by the non-profit Colorado Trail Foundation and the United States Forest Service, and was connected in 1987. Creating this marker is a way to Celebrate and give back.  10% of the proceed from the sale of this marker will go back to the Colorado Trail Foundation as a donation at the end of each year. 

      The marker will come in its own blue fabric pouch with a wooden stand. 

  You can make this a very personal item by adding custom engraving to the back of the marker. You can have the first and last mountains and the dates, or your own message.
