	Continental Divide Trail Alliance - About the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The CDT was described as a 3,100 mile trail, traveling from Canada to Mexico, through five western states- Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico.
		The vision for the CDT is to create a primitive and challenging backcountry trail on or near the Continental Divide to provide people with the opportunity to experience the unique and incredibly scenic qualities of the area.
		Inasmuch as the U.S. Forest Service controlled the greatest amount of land along the CDT, the Secretary of Agriculture was made responsible for the overall coordinated management of the CDT after consultation with the Secretary of Interior and with the Governors of the five respective states through which the Trail passes.
