Segments 28-25 water sources? Good spots to camp?
Hello! My girlfriend and I are planning on doing a portion of the CT in late July. Starting in Durango at Segment 28, and going in reverse to segment 25; ending near Silverton.
We're having a bit of trouble finding reliable water sources. I can see creeks and streams on our map, but any form of online research is telling me that those can be unreliable, and that "you will just be able to find water" which doesn't really help with planning ahead. Currently, we intend to each bring a 3L bladder to be able to carry through dry stretches. But, I would rather be safe than sorry and know exactly what we are getting into.
Additionally, are there any good areas to camp? That will play a part in how we decide to split up our days. I'm aware that you can camp pretty much anywhere, but looking for any specific recommendations on spots.
(Yes, we will have FarOut)
Looking for any and all advice, thank you!
