Presents a story of a 200-mile wilderness journey of the author down the Gila River of New Mexico and Arizona. This book tells that the trip is replete with whitewater thrills, and angling for trout, bass, and catfish. It also features ruminations on the wilderness ethic, and the antics of two companions who promote humor, exasperation, and love.
Herein is the remarkable story of a 200-mile wilderness journey down the Gila River of New Mexico and Arizona. Traveling partly on foot, mostly by canoe, the author was accompanied by a hound dog and a tomcat. His trip is replete with whitewater thrills, and angling for trout, bass, and catfish; ruminations on the wilderness ethic, and the antics of two companions who promote humor, exasperation, and love. But besides being a modern-day excursion into the natural world, ""Gila Descending"" is a personal odyssey as well; and little by little that story, too, is told.
