GET 2017 Day 4, March 21, Tuesday.
Start near Superior, segment 2 mile 16.2, then walk into town.
End near boundary of Tonto National Forest, segment 3 mile 11.7, off GET to follow new AZT trail alignment for a few miles.
Trail miles walked: 14
Striking stealth camp a couple of miles from Superior, I hike along US60, dodging massive construction. Getting on Main Street (starts at Buckhorn Tavern) I walk to historic downtown district to use the library and post office. Downtown is struggling, but some effort is being made to refurbish old buildings.
WIFI at the library was non-functioning, and also slow or broken at any open wifi point. Was a key internet link into town down today? No blog posts can transmit until another town.
I got my supply box at the post office right after it opened at 8:30. An AZT hiker was in line after me, who was staying in town another day.
On the walk out of town I stopped at the arboretum, to become more familiar with the Sonoran eco-zone plants I am seeing on this hike.
