BACKTRACK - Boquillas Ranch
15 Mules and 6 dogs enjoyed an easy, flat hike to the San Pedro River. Six miles round trip in perfect weather. Along the way there was a stop at the Little Boquillas Ranch, an  old cattle station with several historic features. We explored some of the old buildings then continued on. Lunch along the flowing San Pedro was peaceful, with a pleasant beach. Nearing the end several folks had enough energy to check out a steam boiler engine and according to John W. it was used as a pump for water. The hike began and ended at the old corrals. Great day! -Sandy
