Chiricahua National Monument

Arrived Thursday night to our campsite after dark. A little spooky. Set up the tent while a 3-5 deer watched us in the dark. Their glowing eyes piercing the darkness. The next morning we woke to the beauty of the Chiricahua National Forest. Drove a difficult gravel road 30 miles to the Monument the next day and almost ran out of gas. Stayed in the campsite Friday night too. No deer tonight which for some reason makes us more nervous then the first night. There are bear in this neck of the woods.
