Wind River Range 2012!
Did I tell you how amazing the Wind River Range is for climbing, camping, fishing and yoga! Yeah! It's phenonminal! I did several trips in there and loved it so much I can't wait to go back! It is a 10 mi. hike into the Cirque of Towers where you can settle in with the high mountain lakes and wildflowers surrounded by beautiful towering granite peaks! The climbing is exhilerating and fun, with a variety of different climbing objectives for all levels. We will hire a porter to help carry in gear and spend 4 nights playing and climbing out there. If you have someone who is not a climber, they would also love the hiking, fishing, yoga and scenery in there. From our camp it is a short approach to the climbs.
Cost: $1750.00 Includes price of porter, food and camping (rate based on 2 people), does not include rental car fee!
