Departure Day

Rest stop in Superior

Familiar stop outside of Globe

I was looking forward to having lunch seated at a picnic table in the shade of the Ponderosas at Blackjack Campground. It was a standing lunch instead. The campground was closed due to risks of wildfire and also government cut-backs. This was to be a common probem for the next two weeks.

I stayed on the tarmac all day, and finally joined the GDR (Great Divide Route) at Silver City.
