Wind River Range
Spent the past 6 days raging up mountains and hanging out with friends in the Cirque of the Towers in the Wind River Range. In 4.5 days of climbing, Cedar and I summited Pingora, Wolfs Head and Warbonnet 3 times each via different routes and managed to bag a full traverse of all 11 summits in the cirque in 13 hours with many leisurely rests along the way. The climbing was good but the setting, wild flowers, and friends are what made the trip so great. In the 2 weeks I’ve spent in Wyoming over the past month or so, I think I’ve seen more people wearing nets over their faces to protect themselves from bugs over masks to prevent the spread of covid... perhaps I’m spending too much time in the backcountry but it’s quite an interesting contrast to California.
