Wind Rivers - Wind River Peak

August 31-September 4, 2011 - Western Wyoming

37.1 mi  /  4,613 ft

Lisa and I decided to join Dave and Mike on their annual Wind Rivers backpacking trip. We came up a day later and found their camp through some creative note placement. We explored the Cathedral Lake area, then moved camp, then we had the big-daddy day - Wind River Peak. WR Peak is a 13er and the highest in the southern half of the range. I wasn't feeling great this day (dehydration?) and it kicked my butt, but I made 'er. :) We also got in some fishing, and I burned a hole in my britches with my stove.
