This is a really awesome picture. How long was the hike that you did from bighorn to Wheeler and then back? Day or Multi Day

Sorry, just saw this comment. We started at Toas Ski Valley and hiked up the Kachina lift, then up to the top of Kachina Peak. We then traversed the entire Williams Lake Cirque (Kachina, Lake Fork, Big Horn, Pt. 12,728, Simpson, Wheeler) and descended back down from Wheeler to Williams Lake. Very fun route with quite a bit of ridge running and scrambling. I think it took us around 8 hours round trip.

This image gives Wheeler a look worthy of the state's highpoint. Thanks

Thanks. It's a classic New Mexico route.
