The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail is a 3,100 mile long trail that runs on or near the Continental Divide, following the spine of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Mexico. The Continental Divide is so named as it divides the watershed systems within North America, between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The route is not complete, especially in areas of largely private land in southern Wyoming and northern New Mexico. Most of the route through Colorado has been designated, though some stretches of trail are not yet completely built.
