It's so hot we decided to rest here in the shade before tackling an open, south-facing hill. There's a constant drone of bees, flies, and whatnot but none really bothering me.
I did just notice two buzzards circling so maybe we look tasty laying here.
I backhiked a mile to the only water until the Gila River since we missed it coming through. Pretty gnarly with bees and algae, but it filtered just fine. My umbrella and filter are my two favorite items so far. The tips of my trek poles have worn off so I have to figure that one out - buy new poles, tips, or go without.
It's pretty amazing how we take clean water for granted.
