from Gainseville, Fl to the Wind River Range and go backpacking for a couple of weeks.

Isolated, remote roaming at and above tree line like no other area. This photo was from 13,800 feet.

Caught an 18" Golden Trout after descending, but that was 46 years ago. They're probably gone now.

But you are probably right about the Golden Trout. Haven't heard anything about those in forever.

curious...

We had 10 magical cloudless days at 10,500 - 13,800 feet, shorts weather. Then as we were hiking 30 miles out storm clouds started moving in behind us. A few days later back home I read that 2 hikers had died of exposure after being caught in 20" of snow in the exact location of our final campsite - Titcomb Basin, on the day after we left. Maximum spooky and lucky.

Wyoming is beautiful

Thanks for posting it here so we all can get happily and humbly slack-jawed!

high on mushrooms as well as altitude. Glad you enjoy the view.

I think these are young mountains, relatively speaking. Their peaks are rather more pointed than older ones.

Anyway, so gorgeous!

Thank you!

I've seen the Tetons but that was way back in '71 and of course, not from a view like THIS!



(My father had died and my mother was intent on traveling across the country by car and wanted company.)

that's some rugged sh*t!
