Blissful climbs steeply up into the Four Peaks Wilderness, where she camps right on the edge of a cliff.  

In this episode:

1. After sleeping on a wee bit of astroturf at Roosevelt Lake Marina next to the highway, Blissful hitches to the Vineyard Trail.
2.  The wide open trail climbs up past Saguaro and myriad wildflowers, including thousands of Mexican Poppies. 
3. Water sources are far apart on the Mills Ridge Trail requiring big ascents with stunning views of the lake over 3,000 feet below. 
4. All alone except for two tourists and one backpacker coming the other way, she sidles the peaks on a balcony walk finding a perfect flat spot under one lone Ponderosa Pine in snow.

MUSIC: Poema del Pastor Coya by Angel Lasala as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano
