Have you completed the Continental Divide Trail?

CDT Completion Certificate

Section hikers/riders and thru hikers/riders who complete the CDNST can report their journey to the Continental Divide Trail Coalition by filling out the Continental Divide Trail Completion Form.  CDT thru-hikers/riders who report their adventure along the CDNST will be added to our roster of thru hikers/riders and will receive a certificate of recognition and a CDNST Patch.  Also, each year’s thru hiker roster is published in the March?april newsletter. In order to be included in the magazine, regardless of the year of completion, applications must be sent to CDTC by December 31st of the current year.

RECOGNITION POLICY

• We give equal recognition to thru hikers/riders and section- hikers/riders.
• In the event of a trail closure or a safety hazard ( such as washed out bridge, a forest fire, or an impending storm on an exposed ridge) of the “official route” hikers may take alternate routes ( including by vehicle) and still receive official recognition.
• In the event users took any number of alternate routes available, users will still receive official recognition, as is the motto: hiker your own hike!
• We operate on the honor system.
• We recognize users regardless of sequence, direction, speed, or whether they carry a pack, or any variation of their hike.
