CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL

CDT Day 109: Along the Divide on MT/ID Border

ByPurple Haze Posted onJuly 22, 2017September 21, 2025

Daily Miles: 19.4, Total Miles: 1,920.8

I didn’t sleep well but at least the evening and morning routine came back quickly.

Had some really nice views along the Divide but hazy from Idaho fires.

Lots of ups and downs today. For most of the day, I was hiking through a tall shag carpet of purple, red and yellow flowers. My clothes and shoes are covered in sticky pollen.

Along the Divide on the ID/MT border

Saw only one person today, a guy on horseback, scouting for an elk hunt.

Mozzies are horrible tonight on the South Fork Odell Creek – rarely use the head net but tonight’s the night while setting up camp.
