The Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming offer an excellent introduction to mountain backpacking for confident first-time or experienced backpackers. After a few days of training at Widji, groups drive by van for two days to the Bighorns, near Buffalo, in north central Wyoming. Campers spend approximately eight days hiking at elevations of 8,000-10,000 feet.
Two Widji Trail Counselors share the leadership for each Bighorn group of four to six campers. Groups must be prepared for a variety of weather, including the occasional snow shower!
