Links and general cleanup needed edit

This could be a great article if improved to the quality of the similar Appalachian Trail page which is flagged as "Good". Sad to see so little activity here. Much work to do.

Regarding the "three southern termini" - is there an official one? What's the difference between them?

On a note closer on Wiki page standards, links from/to here seem to be flaky. For example, this page's Infobox refers to Columbus, NM as the southern trailhead. The Columbus village page however, doesn't mention the CDT. But the Antelope Wells page does claim being "the" southern terminus. The third referenced southern terminus: Crazy Cook Monument, doesn't even have a Wiki.

I was about to edit some of these articles but don't feel versed enough in the CDT to do so. Little info is available online without ordering the official maps.

Also, since the northern end goes a short distance into Canada - is that via road? Does the trail lead to a road customs checkpoint, then divert back to a trail in Canada? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trep26 (talkcontribs) 02:11, 2 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
