apache de gila



high altitude bucci
the Gila wilderness was the nations first designated Wilderness . It was home to remarkable ancient cultures and unique eco systems . The Gila cliff dwellings . The home of Geronimo . Ancient Calderas . Great hikes . Before the Cliff Dwellings were built in late 1200s,  the Mimbres & Mogollon lived here producing some of the greatest SW pottery
