Thanks for part 4.GREAT.

You do manage to find the "goats"and the pica.

Those little critters are a nice find.Not many hikers get to see them.

The guy at the summit seems so typical,there seems to always be a "loud mouth"

in a group like that.Oh well you were able to get away to silence.

What a great adventure up/down the 14ers.

 

Nice to have a replenishment store like REI on the route.

Hi Ski. Haven't been on the forum for awhile. I was in the same area in Wyoming three or four weeks ago.Pretty place. Too bad I didn't meet up with you two. Maybe someday. You two still get around alot. Nice road trip you had.

Great looking rams.When you come upon them while out hiking

or along the road it's such a treat.

Good choice of boots.We have used Salomon products for some time now.

Really like how they "walk",great shoes.

Thanks for this part.

Wish I was there too! And from GBNP to Yosemite (and you get to get there by driving across Nevada -let the adventures continue!).

I finally read through your great summer adventures. What a great trip and some monumental day hikes. Such a treat to see the Bighorns!! Lately any ascents approaching 14,000' have been giving me altitude sickness so I just avoid them. Great to see you still making the climbs!! My current boots are Salomons and I think they're great. The soles of my last 2 pairs of Lowa's delaminated. The csr at REI said I can only expect to get one year out of them. Whaaat!! Did you go the the Wind River Range? I'd love to see your pics from there- maybe from another posting? Thanks for 5 great TRs!!
