## Caption

Photos by Pete McBride pedromcbride / Ribbon of life. The upper Gila River winds through America’s first wilderness area and is some the most remote country I’ve seen. I paddled it in a pack raft last spring (extreme social distance) for americanrivers to document this free-flowing gem and the wild wonders it supports. Thanks, Senators Heinrich and Luján for your vision and legislative support to protect this desert lifeline. For more remote places, follow pedromcbride. #wildgilariver #wilderness #wildandscenic #nature #NewMexico
