Would like to horsepack into the Bob Marshall and perhaps, over
the divide into White River country, although, that might be a bit
rigorous for me now. My fav. spot in the "Bob" got burned over in the
last round of fire but would like to see it anyway.

this is a trip a number of folks here have talked about, looked into
doing, then lost interest in for one reason or another. if this is in
the planning stage and allows for others to join, please send me an
e-mail and let me know details.

I've done it twice, but it was a long time ago. They weren't primarily
fishing trips, but I did a little fishing with moderate success.

It was so long ago that I don't even remember where I fished. It was
mainly a sightseeing trip. Frankly, we were on horseback so many hours a
day that there was little chance to fish, and the outfitter wasn't
generally camping at fishing spots -- more at spots with graze for the
stock.

any interest in putting a trip together? i couldn't find an outfitter
that would drop off a small group with stuff/supplies and pick up 10
days later.

No. Been there, done that.

At one time I wanted to get a trip together to wander around the
Buffalo district of Bridger-Teton National Forest just south of
Yellowstone. It's still something I'd consider if an outfitter
would pack in the gear with horses or mules *and* I could walk.
If I never get on another ****ing horse again so long as I live
that will be just fine by me. Mules aren't so bad but I'd still
rather walk.

My doctor's nephew is a llama outfitter operating in the
Wind River Range but I don't know of any llama outfitters in
the Bridger-Tetons. Llamas would be cool too, anything rather
than riding a damn horse.

I was getting ready to throw my hat into the ring until I researched it a
little...if I may copyright violate Wikipedia....

"Aside from numerous waterfalls, lakes, and dense forests, the wilderness is
also prime Grizzly Bear habitat and the U.S. Forest Service claims that the
population density of this species is higher than can be found anywhere else
in the U.S. outside of Alaska."

If you go with an outfitter, which is necessary unless you have you own
stock and a clue, you don't have to worry about grizzlies. Feel
fortunate if you happen to see one.

Watch out for those aggressive deer, though. :-)

Just shove your waders from the UP in their face.
