Hey guys, I would like to get out west this year before the 4th of July as a little graduation present to myself a backpacking trip with fishing as major part of the trips focus. This trip is kind of being planned because I am unsure if I will make it out west this year to antelope hunt as I originally planned with the uncertainty of my job situation. I am not an expert fly fisherman by any means but I would like to catch a few fish, I also plan to bring a spinning real as a backup so I am no purest.
I would like to hike in the 20 mile range my length of trip still isn't undecided but 4+ days is what I had thought about. I have done 12 miles hikes here in the Midwest, but I am ramping up my cardio and bettering my fitness, but that's not just related to the trip. In a perfect world the trip would entail hiking, fishing, decent views, no reservation (ideally), and lower traffic area is what I am looking. I was looking at the Wind River range in WY but I am still kind of in the early planning stages so I'm really not stuck on anything.
Based off of that do you guys have any recommendations?
