Share Our World: Overview of Wind River Range backpacking trip

Here is an overview of the backpacking trip I went on with my family in July 2021 to the Wind River Range in Wyoming.

Day 1

On the first day we met at my brother's house in Rigby, Idaho. We packed up ourselves and the llamas. My memory of that morning was my sister in law waking me up and asking if I felt ok to go. I get migraines that last 3 days if I do not get medication right away. I was on the third day of the migraine and I knew that when I got through this day I would be fine. I made it to our first camp which was about 6 miles in. I didn't take many pictures as I was pushing myself to get through the hike.

Here we are at the start of the hike at the Scab Creek Trailhead. There were 10 people and 5 llamas in our group.

Day 2

I woke up headache free and excited to experience and take pictures of this beautiful country.

We were a little sad to leave our awesome campsite that sat up about this beautiful lake.

We hiked the rest of the way to our second campsite close to Dream Lake. This area made a great place to camp and do day hikes.

Day 3

We woke up to this awesome sunrise on Day 3.

Later that morning

Me with my siblings

I went a a couple of hikes.

Day 4

This was my favorite day. Jodi, Scotty, Kristen, Cat and I went on a hike to many lakes. I have great siblings and it was great spending time with them.

We did some fishing too.




We played some cards, had dinner, washed at the creak and enjoyed a rainbow that evening.
Jodi brought the best food. I love the enchiladas, with sour cream, salsa and avacado...all freeze dried. Yummy!

Day 5

Scotty and I got up early and went to take pictures


We packed up camp and hiked half way to the beautiful place we camped on the way in.

I twisted my ankle and again had to push myself to make it to the camp.

Day 6

I was so hurt and the hike so long and hard that I took a total of 5 pictures this day, here are three- My ankle, with Kristen, and strawberry shortcake at Verl's in Idaho.

Pack Llamas

One of the fun parts of the trip was having 5 of Verl's pack llamas with us and getting to know their unique personalities

This is Aspen, was the matriarch of the group. She was the steading influence.

Pasha is Aspen's baby. It was Pashas first time on the trail.

What an adventure. So glad I could journal it for myself and share it with you here on Hive. Wyoming is one of my favorite places with it's rugged mountain and stunning landscape.
