I am planning a backpack in the Wind River range and would like to explore some new areas. On several backpacks I have hiked up the New Forks trail to the Lozier Lakes and then descended to Trail Creek Park. This time I would like to go past the Lozier Lakes to what some call New Fork Pass, the highest point along the trail, and then turn south, plotting a course across the high plateau to the west of Glover Peak before dropping down to the No Names Lakes. It looks like the most efficient route heads toward lake 11192 and then follows the drainages down to the No Names. It also looks like you could visit the Thompson/Hidden Lakes, possibly camping there and then drop down to the No Names.

Has anyone explored this area have suggestions?
Also, I am looking at the pass between Wall Lake and Upper Golden Lake. From the north end of Wall Lake the route to the pass heads east past lake 10842 to the divide. From the divide the best route seems to descend to Lake 11065 and then following the drainage down to Upper Golden Lake. Again, anyone have any experience with the route? What is the drop like into the Golden Lakes via Lake 11065? See: Click here to view on CalTopo
