Blissful climbs up the Mogollon Rim and it’s filled with pines, snow, and melting snow.

In this episode:

1. Blissful is reminded that if you sleep right next to a river, your tent will be soaking wet.
2. It's an easy rise through deeply shaded Ponderosa Pine next to the rushing East Verde River, the same one crossed in the deserty Mazatzals. 
3. After a rocky rise, the Mogollon Rim is revealed, frozen footprints through snowy drifts lead the way across icy streams. 
4. Soon, it's up and out of this lovely canyon to a flat walk through deep water and mud, a miserable messy walk to a quiet spot under pines, after a bit of trail magic. 

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