SKIT Day 31: Zero Day in Willcox

ByPurple Haze Posted onApril 15, 2022September 22, 2025

Daily Miles: 0, Total Miles: 411.0

A lazy, hazy day in Willcox, haze coming from a wildfire in the Dragoons west of here. That’s where I started the first half of the SKIT last fall.

I did some planning on the last leg and week of this hike through the Dos Cabezas and Chiricahua Mountains. Rough, wild and beautiful country.

Other than that, catching up with family, news, and reading a book, Cloud Cuckoo Land. My only exercise was walking up and down from the motel second floor a few times.
