One popular way to see the beauty of the Winds is the spot pack. An outfitter will pack your gear in on horse or mule, and help you set up your camp. Then you are on your own. The outfitter will return at a pre-arranged time to pick you up. The spot pack saves much wear and tear on ageing knees, and enables you to have a more comfortable camp.
Llamas are an increasingly popular pack animal, and are available for rent locally.
Roads and trails are usually passable from late May through October. As easy as hiking gets in the Wind River Mountains. From the main trailhead to Elkhart Park, take the well marked Pole Creek Trail. It is one more mile to Miller Park. The trail forks with Miller Lake one mile to the right, and Photographer's Point one mile to the left.
