Hauling heavy packs is the worst part of backpacking. But Wasatch Front Llamas has the answer to that problem. They offer guided and unguided backpacking trips using llamas to carry your gear. So met up with the guys at Wasatch Front Llamas and hiked to Kermsuh Lake in the Uinta Mountains. The llamas carried most of our gear on the 7-mile hike in. Once there, we basically car camped at 10,000 feet with Camp Chef cooking gear and all the amenities our llamas could haul in. At the lake we fished all day for cutthroat and brook trout, when ended the evenings eating great food.
