It has been a couple of interesting days walking the remaining Gila River alternate path which lead to more river crossings, but I also decided to take the high route to avoid the middle fork section of the Gila which would have meant at least 90 additional crossings.
I went to see the Gila Cave Dwellings National Monument which was very interesting to visit and finally was done with the river section when I was hit with a unanticipated Snow Storm. I met Herro that was keeping me company during the storm and we were able to hide inside a van from a guy that just happened to pass through. The storm cleared up and I continued with Herro and Micah when it started to snow again so we opted to camp out in the snow for that night.
After that Snow Storm I hiked two long days mainly solo but then grouped up with Pretzel to hike my first day over 30 miles into the Davila Ranch. Next stop will be Pie Town in 14 Miles from here where I do not intend to stay and Grants about 90 Miles from here where the next Motel is waiting for me.
