I know the Jeep safari starts on Sunday the 20th. You might be ok.

I did think about the reverse shuttle, leaving the car near Jenny lake for our exit. It is a great idea, if we can make it happen. I'm not opposed to hitching, not sure about my friend. We are also debating grabbing a cheap hotel room at Teton Village to clean and repack for Garnet Canyon...

@AKay09 - I checked my map and it is a newer one, like @Chuck the Mauler mentioned. No mileage segments for the trails. You can check out CalTopo and figure it out though, just takes some time. Weather wise, yeah - anything can happen. I'm just 1/1 for snow in the Tetons in Sept. Just to share...

@Outdoor_Fool Interesting - I have the Trails Illustrated map for GTNP and I want to say the mileage waypoints (red markers) are not on there! I know they have overall mileage listed for specific hikes though. I'm doing "most" of the Crest and Middle Teton mid-July so I've been planning...

Yes, this made my day! $189 Need to pick up some new light mountaineering boots so that will help for sure.

Looks like a bighorn sheep up there on the ridge - taken from Provo Canyon Road or near it / near Bridal Veil falls area. Could be way off but thats my first guess.

@Mike K You're right there. Exact location is 40.599078, -111.675698. Took this on a day hike last fall - I climbed up the north ridge of Superior via Lake Blanche. Then hiked down to Oktoberfest for some beers. This is remnants of some old mine structure/hut up there - probably part of the...

Oatmeal, coffee (I use the starbucks VIA), energy bars, drink mixes to add to water, hot chocolate (with a bit of whisky at night), freeze dried meals. I'm really impressed with the AlpineAire freeze dried foods - I pretty much look for the most calories I can get when it comes to freeze dried...

@Artemus - You're within 4 miles as the crow flies. If the string of trees wasn't there you just might just be able to catch a glimpse of a very popular lake. I might give this one up later today and pass the torch

Nope. Its actually in the Wasatch

Negative. You're too far south.

This is in Utah

Cold.

I never heard of Longmire before this actually, but I heard about that area awhile back. I couldn't remember the name of it so I had to look up Longmire to see if I could dig up the spot! Here you go:

All hints will make sense if its the Valles Caldera Preserve in New Mexico

Moved here to Park City, UT about 3.5 years ago from Buffalo, NY. Have since moved and own a home in SLC. I lived in Buffalo for 30 years (my whole life) and we decided to just to up and leave. We were coming out here to visit about once a year and I love the outdoors and the mountains. I guess...

I've never had a really scary experience in the backcountry, only when car camping. About 5 or 6 years ago we were on a yearly trip to Lake Tahoe and were camping in the campground at Camp Richardson. We were with my brother and sister-in-law and their 2 kids. We chose a really nice site that...

I was going to take an educated guess based on looking up all the JW inscriptions and say Forbidding Canyon but the hint @Nick gave is making me want to switch my guess to Grotto canyon? No idea, never been there!

One of my first backpacking trips when I lived back in NY was in the High Peaks of the ADKs - My pack weighed about 50lbs for 3 days - I brought way too much food - I don't know why, but I had about 2 or 3lbs of trail mix in my bear canister along with some mountain houses and a ton of clif...

@River - you're on it. Too easy I guess!
