Plastic soda or water bottles make great inexpensive water bottles. A
2-liter bottle fits nicely into the side pocket
of most backpacks.

Dayhikers enjoyed a fairly easy hike up to the Indian ruins looking out over Cave Creek. Amongst the remains of the village were hundreds of shards of pottery. After lunch, dayhikes headed back, following the creek, and backpackers forged ahead, following the creek up stream. This required a considerable amount of bushwacking, but the scenery made it well worthwhile, for most. We made camp at about 5, and spent a wonderful evening under the stars in the cool air. After dinner and a couple of games of 'Oh Hell' later played by the crackling fire, it was time to turn in. The next day proved to be a fairly easy hike out through some gourgeous scenery following Cave Creek up to the take out point near Seven Springs, where, of course, Kurt and Stevie were waiting for the stragglers.
