I need to find my CO Trail Databook before I make the judgment call on where to stop the first night. Though, it will be most of the way through the segment.

Pickup on Friday, June 5. This is an unplanned thing for me, I was planning on being picked up a day later, on Saturday, maybe even Sunday. This may let me relax my "10 miles per day" strategy. Which may allow some people to join me at different times.
There's the rough outline of the Segments/days. I feel that Segment 10 is entirely optional, if I don't have enough time left to complete it at the end of Segment 9, that's entirely fine.
I was off in the milage on the previous post.
Segment 3 12.7
Segment 4 16.6
Segment 5 14.4
Segment 6 32.9
Segment 7 12.8
Segment 8 25.4
Segment 9 13.6
Segment 10 13.0
Total: 141.4

It sounds like you are getting your planning all in place. That's a good thing. That is a long way to hike.
I may change up the days on how long segment 6 will take. I looked at the elevation profile, and it's up and down faster than a roller coaster. That may take an extra day and put me in to saturday before I finish.
yay I get to stalk your blog
hehe =p
