The Winds

Does camping get much better than this? This is the spot where I spent a week in August 2006 in the Wind River Range of Wyoming. This is the Deep Lake area and that’s Haystack Mountain. On the right side of the face is a 4th class descent route called the Grassy Goat Path. The tall central part of the face contains a couple climbs called the Major Dihedral and Minor Dihedral.

Photo Details: Nikon D70 on tripod w/ 18-70mm at 18mm, 30s at f/13 and ISO 200 w/ +1 exposure compensation, light source is a headlamp.
