The Cirque of Towers was an amazing place, due to smoke from fires in surrounding states there was
limited opportunities for doing landscape photography, never the less it was truly
impressive. Jackass Pass kicked our butts going in, but once in, the views where truly inspiring. A climbers mecca, the Cirque has a lot to offer to any one interested in the the outdoors, from 1000 foot walls of rock to clear, trout filled lakes and streams.

The Wind River Range, Wyoming. I have had a chance over the past couple of weeks to see some of this country's most beautiful back country. The Wind River Range in Wyoming, it is an incredible place to hike, you feel a real sense of isolation and awareness of your surroundings, its remote and wild, one morning we woke to moose foraging for willow near camp, trout swim in the open shallow waters of Lonesome lake, almost as if you could reach out an grab one.
