Still Smokin'

It was less smoky this morning when Becca and I did a hike on the west side of Tortugas Mountain, but still noticeably hazy.  Very bad news from the Whitewater-Baldy fire, though, as it has claimed over 175,000 acres of Gila National Forest timber.  Reports are that the fire is still 0% contained, and that it may burn through July.
