On the outskirts of the Greater Yellowstone Area lies a mountain range of extraordinary size and wildness.  The Wind River Mountain Range has amassed the most numerous collection of glaciers in the lower 48 states and is home to Gannett Peak, Wyoming’s highest peak, measuring in at 13,804 feet.  This seven day, 40-mile journey is an exploration of the seldom-visited northern portion of the Wind River Range.  The itinerary takes us into the depths of the mountains and back in a large loop.  Along the way we will pass towering granite walls, camp among pristine alpine lakes, and traverse the toe of a massive glacier that straddles the continental divide.  We will reach elevations of 12,500 feet, where we are literally looking down on everything around us.  Two rest days are built into the itinerary of this trip for exploration and enjoyment of the range.  Great spots for fly-fishing, "peak bagging," or relaxation are abundant among these high peaks.
