Introduction
The Wyoming 12ers are the group of all independent peaks above 12,000 feet elevation in Wyoming. An “independent peak” is defined here as having at least 300 feet of prominence (vertical rise) above the highest saddle connecting it to a higher peak, in keeping with general Rocky Mountain peakbagging tradition.
Trip Reports
My progress through the Wyoming 12ers is documented through a variety of trip reports. A single report often contains multiple peaks across one or more days. You can browse these reports in two ways: organized chronologically by trip or organized by peak elevation.
