Nice report Jackson,
I really love that area, and your trip was definitely different than most posted here.
But something I would like to do.
Fishing is great throughout the Winds.
It's well worth the extra weight for gear.
Thanks for sharing

Great stuff ! Love all the pics.
Thanks for sharing.
We did the Teton Crest Trail 2 years ago.
Can't wait to get back again.
Love all of Wyoming

What maps are available for the White Clouds?
I have a Earth Walk press map of Sawtooths, but it doesn't cover surrounding ranges.
Thanks in advance.

And it wasn't because of the scenery. It's all new to me and it all looks spectacular.
Sawtooths, White Clouds. I have to see for myself.
I was just gravitating to the area with the highest peaks.

Thanks for the insightful, detailed report.
I am in early stages of planning Sawtooths trip.
And had already switched my attention to the White Clouds.
Thanks for reaffirmation.
Great pics too!

Take Me Back
Take me back. Take me back to the places where life breaks down to the basics, where I only need to worry about how much longer I have to walk before I can take a break, how many pairs of socks I need to wash, and how many jolly ranchers are left in my pocket. I want to be where...
Yes, it was incredibly rewarding. The Sierra's are immense. We love the Teton's and the Wind's and Glacier. And now include Yosemite in that list.
It's worth it alone to hike the trails in the park.
Definitely more elevation gain and loss, then anything we had done before.
Once your on the...
Thanks @Joey
Its really eating at me to go back and finish sometime soon.
But right now we are setting our sites on a Glacier/ Sawtooth adventure for next year.
Maybe we can meet up again.

The resupply worked perfectly. Everything was were it was supposed to be.
Not cheap. Probably had $400 in related costs.
Next time I would rely solely on the hiker overflow barrels. They were always teaming with anything you would need.

Everyone that has hiked the John Muir trail knows the extensive amount of planning involved. We had 4 resupply buckets to prepare
with our 20+ days of grub.
Flights and shuttles and cabin reservations, permits and licenses. Not to mention the constant physical...
Not sure about Glacier yet. Wait and see what permit we get. Its been a few years. Its time to go back. We have done the Tetons, so I can relate to those trails.
Just did 150 miles on JMT.
There was big time elevation gain and loss each day. Was just wondering how Sawtooths compared. Thanks for...
Great pics and trip report.
We are seriously considering doing something like this next summer.
A trip to Glacier, then a Sawtooths trip.
Just curious as to what kinda of elevation up and down, on a daily basis?
Thanks for sharing
