Hiking New Mexico's Gila Wilderness

New Mexico's 555,000-acre Gila Wilderness is a vast untrammeled patchwork of virtually unlimited forest types, climatic conditions, and wildlife. This rugged landscape boasts sweeping tundra, hot springs, mountain views, and deep gnarled canyons. Within Gila's boundaries, you can follow trails to views of the breathtaking peaks of the Mogollon Range, wonder at ancient cliff dwellings, and wind your way along stream-ribboned ponderosa forests.Polly Burke is the author of 'Hiking New Mexico's Gila Wilderness', published 1999 under ISBN 9781560447382 and ISBN 1560447389.
