Very nice video. What time of the year did you go. I would love to backpack the Gila.

We used to backpack in the Gilas in the 70′s. Several times in the snow. Mostly Hummingbird Saddle and Whitewater Baldy and Redstone(?) Canyon. Could always catch a few trout at the canyon. Great place. Used to be some nice folks in Mogollon, that would invite us in when we came through. Thanks for sharing.

I really enjoyed your photo log. I have a place near the Gila Wilderness and am planning on building a vacation/retirement home there in the not too distant future to take advantage of its proximity to do much of the same as you’ve done.

I backpacked Whitewater to Hummingbird Saddle and then back down the east and south fork trails this spring 2008 with a friend for 4 nights 5 days and it was beautiful!! There is even water from springs at the top of the 9,000 and 10,000FT peaks and its all water filter friendly! I’m going back next spring in 2009 for more backpacking fun!

Very, very nice. What are the GPS coordinates of the trailhead?

Man, you are crazy. I hike the Gila quite often but usually during the summer (I just went out beginning of June) but I wouldn’t do it with the snow.
Good pics though!
