Gila River



The Gila flows strong and surprisingly warm from the point where the three forks come together. We hiked down several crossings from the confluence. It was here that we came across the largest grapevines we’ve ever seen. The vine trunks were tree sized. Look closely and you’ll see where the beaver graze along the river.










If you don’t pull a trailer or drive a large RV you can access the Gila Hot Springs driving directly north from Silver City through Pinos Altos. If you do, make sure to stop off at the new Two Spirits cafĂ©. The two fine ladies that run it serve great food.
