Approach to Pingora - Oh my aching back!

Took a trip to climb in the cirque in August of 2001. I carried in nearly 80 pounds of stuff for 7 days in. I've since converted to ultralight backpacking btw. Luckily as the saying goes, alpine climbers have short memories, and I'd gladly hike the 11 mile approach again to climb more routes there. Pingora was all we did, but it well worth it!
