An Overnight Backpack Trip

It's always a pleasure to see pictures of your trips.
Up here, we pretty much run out of trees at 10,000 feet. Are you
packing a float tube? Otherwise, tree lined lakes are kind of a pain. I
guess that's why I like fishing above timberline.
I walked in about 6 miles, far too far for me to carry a tube etc.
Treeline is a bit higher. There were a number of areas that gave you
casting room.
The reservoir looks like one we passed on a train trip we took a few
weeks ago from Denver to Glenwood Springs. Very low.
I've only done day hikes so far. My new job is really cutting into my
physical fitness program and backpacking. I hope to finish up the two
well job in a week or so and get to backpacking and fishing.

You've got things backward there Bob. You need to get a job where you
work in the Winter when it sucks to live in Wyoming so you can be off
when it's a great place to be.
