Now Boondocking near Caballo, NM

A nice sunrise greeted me this morning:



 I left the Picacho Peak area after breakfast and was soon on the outskirts of Tucson, Arizona doing a banking chore.  That completed, I kept driving on interstate 10 towards the New Mexico border, which I reached at 11:37 a.m. 

I chose to stay at a BLM spot that I had found and liked during my last trip through this area.  I found a better spot, I hope, than the spot I use last time.  It is further away from the main gate and out of side of the NM 152 highway.



I think I got the area all to myself for now, no other camping rigs within line of sight for sure.  I'll explore further out tomorrow.

Altitude: 4967 feet, a gain of over 3000 ft from my previous site near Picacho Peak!  I expect I'll wake to cooler temperatures!  The afternoon temperatures when I showed up here were warm but the cloudy skies get the sun from feeling too hot.
