A Gila Wilderness day trip

My wife and I took a little day trip to the north end of The Gila Wilderness in New Mexico. I love this place and there is never a shortage of things to shoot. We were about 60 Miles north of the large (220,000 acre) fire that you may have heard about, so the smoke was a problem at times---but this is a beautiful place and if you ever have a chance to visit, you won't regret it.

Here are a few shots from the trip:
