Renee's 2021 Continental Divide Trail thruhike gear list! Wyoming/Idaho/Southern Montana edition!
Note: Tim and I shared some of our gear -- I carried the tarp/tent and Tim carried the cook set.
We picked up bear spray and rope for hanging our food when entering grizzly bear country (after the Red Desert & before the Wind River Range) and carried them the rest of the trail.
