This is where the Archuleta Trail meets with the South Fork Archuleta Trail. If you want to connect with the Continental Divide Trail, you should take the Archuleta Trail! The Continental Divide Trail (CDT) meets with the South Fork Archuleta Trail. On many maps, the South Fork Archuleta Trail is shown and is technically an option to get to the Continental Divide Trail. However, this trail is in very bad shape from the junction to Spruce Lakes. It is challenging to follow some red flags that were put onto trees, you have to bushwack and climb over fallen trees a lot and it is easy to get lost.
