I'm taking some friends hiking in mid August and I can't decide where to take them. The plan is to hike in the first day to a base camp site and then spend the next few days doing day hikes. The last day we would follow the same route back to our cars. Most of the people going are new to this, so I need a place that is somewhat remote but not overly difficult to hike in to. In other words, nothing technical involved.
I personally want to go to an area I haven't been to. Places I've hiked in that area: Wind River Range, Tetons, Beartooths, Bighorns. I thought about going to Glacier, but we are diving from Illinois in a day and that is kind of far. Plus the nights get cold up there that time of year. I'm leaning towards some place in the Absaroka wilderness area. Anyone know of some trails that would work for this trip? Non horse trails are preferred.
Edit: spelling
