Cirque of the Towers Map (Wind River Range, Wyoming)
A special Backpacker Magazine topo map printed on waterproof, tearproof paper. Includes topographic map data from the USGS and detailed trip information
Spend two nights here on a 17.4-mile out-and-back hike, or take advantage of numerous possibilities for longer treks. Pitch your tent on soft ground in meadows surrounded by a horseshoe of toothy, sheer granite towers with names like Warbonnet, Wolf’s Head, Shark’s Nose, and Warrior. No matter how much time you’ve allotted, you’ll wish you had more for the climbing, fishing, and on- and off-trail exploring. The best side trips include Cirque Lake and Lonesome Lake below the soaring face of Pingora Peak, and Texas Pass above Secluded Lake. Bring a rod for catching cutthroat trout in Lonesome Lake. Map includes turn-by-turn hiking directions and in-depth trip planning essentials to help you experience this BACKPACKER PRO adventure.
