Yeh...that's what we did in 2008 - this was late May - so we had gallon jugs cached with  
GPS way points and picked it up as we traveled up the 'trail'. There are alot of roads in that section so a drop off isn't too diffiuclt.  Mini Mart

The small spring just north of Wagontongue Mountain was nearly dry in spring 2009. (I *think* it was called "Damien Spring.")  It was pretty hard to find, even with the Wolf Guide's description.

There was also a windmill (two miles?) North of Damien Spring.  (I think it was Aragon Windmill??)  This was full of green algea water when I visited, and was not pumping, despite steady wind.

Finally, a trail angel left 10 gallons of water at NM Highway 12 one mile north of Aragon Spring.

>Good description.  If these coordinents look west of where the trail is on the USGS map, I think the trail was relocated west (and back east in a big switchback) just before the fire.  Generally, error toward the east side of the burn.  If you try to follow the trail, your momentum will take you west into the middle of the burn (from either direction).  Jonathan may have a better description this year.
