Did this backpacking trip in late august. Hiked the incredible cirque of the towers loop over texas pass and jackass pass with incredible views of wolfs head. Camped at Dads lake on night 1, Shadow lake on night 2, lonesome lake (climbers camp) on night 3. You will pass by a number of lakes including Barren lake, Mirror lake, Marms lake, Shadow lake, Billys lake, Texas lake, Lonesome lake, Arrowhead lake, North lake and Big Sandy lake. Just amazing hiking in the remote backcountry of Wyoming. We were fortunate enough to catch a couple dozen brook and cutthroat trout, see countless wildflowers and see a bald eagle as well as big horn sheep. Comparable to Grand Teton National Park.

So glad to have stumbled upon your channel. Great camera work and awesome locations. I'm looking forward to working my way through your vids!

[@TheOutdoorGypsy]

Thank ya kindly. Means more coming from another content creator like yourself. Last several are good. Go way back and they get a little rough. Been trying to refine my channel and the camera work.

[@whistlepig]

@@TheOutdoorGypsy I know the feeling! I'm embarrassed to watch my first ones (and occasionally even my recent ones)! It's part of the process, I try and remind myself. Glad to connect with you. Good luck and keep 'em coming.

[@TheOutdoorGypsy]

Likewise.

Beautiful place .. is it crowded? I hope not. Love Wyoming, especially around Lander.💖☀️

[@TheOutdoorGypsy]

Incredibly beautiful. Parts of the winds are EXTREMELY remote with crazy solitude. Others like this hike are quite crowded. But, if you’re willing to go to the lakes without the glitz and glamor you can still find relative solitude.

Great video! How did you like this loop compared to the Teton Crest? We did the Crest a couple years ago and loved it and has been contemplating the Winds vs. the Sawtooths for our next backpacking trip. What are your thoughts! Keep up the great content. Thanks!

[@TheOutdoorGypsy]

Thank ya. I have a slight bias towards the Teton crest trail. Not by much but a little. They’re both AMAZING hikes. Believe it or not I found less people on the Teton trail than the cirque due to the permits limiting people and the camping areas are ever so slightly better. Funny you mention the sawtooth. I will be doing that in 7 weeks. Maybe I’ll see ya there.

[@itsmaryn1005]

Great. Thanks! Have a great trip!

Music is good but when i watch this kind of videos I really like to hear the ambient noise it's much better than any music just sayin

[@TheOutdoorGypsy]

I appreciate the feedback. I debate going without music all the time. One of these videos I might give it a try. Would make my life much easier.
