Uphill in 120 F - in search of water-holes (Superstitions)
- draft
| 2000/07/15 - 2000/07/16 | |
I was in Supersitions looking for a water-hole.
Not any water-hole, but one listed in a book named "Day Trips with a Splash: Swimming
Holes of the Southwest".
The face that tells the story.....
at least to me. The first sips of water from the camelback were always
hot. And spitting it seemed wasteful since i was low on water. And there
wasn't much water in Jeep either. 3 gallons seemed ok for 2 days, but
that wasn't enough. I had to find that water-hole and filter water from
there.
It wasn't too challenging walking uphill,
the only problem was the water. I had to drink it constantly. If i had something
to cover the blue tube, just the part exposed to the sun... something white...
next time. This was day 2 of looking for "Fish Creek", where the water
hole was supposed to be. I didn't think the uphill walk was in the right direction,
but I wanted to get a view from above. If it didn't help with navigating, at least
i would see Superstitions from above.
