The campground near Verde Hot Springs, on the Verde River n north-central Arizona, late April 2007. I camped up here during my research on the Ressurection of Fossil Creek for Inside /outside magazine, which covers the Four Corners area.
That's a Hammock Bliss mosquito hammock - exactly one step up from the Byer my son has [see previous post below]. It's a little easier to rig, but it's chief virtue was that it was in stock in at the Glendale Cabela's the day before I left for this trip.
The stove Trail Stove pictured boils water in about ten minutes using basically garbage and wood chips, but it doesn't meet fire restrictions in AZ, so it's useless to me most of the summer.
I had to buy a Pocket Rocket for Buckskin Gulch. It works great, but you have to get to a sporting goods store to get more fuel.
Later on I'll tells the tale of how I rescued by hippies near this very spot a couple of years ago - and more about the hot springs.
