Short 15 mile hike for the day so I added some miles around Walnut Canyon. Met a couple of other hikers out doing the same loop around Flagstaff and a couple others taking it slow, otherwise, for camping only seven miles away from town I may as well be in the middle of nowhere… except […]

Fisher Point Cave
Decided not to hike the 30 miles south to Mormon Lake for pizza. They may or may not be open yet for the season. Instead I’m hiking the AZT loop around Flagstaff. First day was only to Lake Mary Valley and up to Fisher Point where I spent so much time looking at the view […]
Flagstaff Tent Camping
Sunrise from inside the tent, just south of Flagstaff #tentcamping #wandering
Toaster House, Pie Town, NM
Stopped at the Toaster House in Pie Town, NM. The place is super nice, quiet and comfortable despite what you may have read on FarOut. Those people causing problems have been removed. The owners are exceedingly generous in their hospitality. Plus you’re walking distance to lots of pie! Just wish my last pair of shoes […]

At the same time I found out a friend who was coming to visit, bringing all of my belongings from storage, got into an accident. Totalling his van and breaking his hip. […]
Tent Camping Gila National Forest
Camping and hiking in some pretty remote places. No cell signal, no people, and you try to grab water when you find it. 170 Mile’s between town’s is more than I’m used to. #CDT #wandering
Laundry Day on the CDT, Silver City, NM
Apparently, doing laundry in town is the most dangerous thing I could be doing. Wish me luck! I hope I survive! #CDT #wandering
Columbus Gila Alternate Loop Hike on the CDT
Brutal hiking! Snow covered trail that also happened to be overgrown with thorns, yay! At least I got to make a Del’s lemonade. #CDT #wandering
CDT Loop Hike Around Silver City, NM
Doing the Gila River Alternate to Columbus Gila Alternate to the CDT as a loop before heading north to hot springs, but spending the afternoon soaking in a river can’t hurt #CDT #wandering
Slowing Down in Silver City, NM
Exploring some of the trails north of Silver City for the next week or so before I continue heading north on the CDT. #CDT #wandering
