Ditto on the Finis Mitchell book. I made a trip to the Winds in about '85 from Pinedale into the Bridger Wilderness. Before I went I traded letters with Finis and bought a book from him through the mail. He knew the area like no other man before or after him. He marked up the pages that covered the areas we were hiking through with personal notes, and he even threw in some flies that worked very well in the WR high country. Pinedale...say it again...Pinedale.
Plus, you can stop and have a meal at King Cones, "Home of the Roadkill Burger"!
