Blissful begins the Arizona Trail which starts backwards, heading south for three very steep miles to the Mexican Border.
In this episode:
- Blissful flies to Tucson, takes a shuttle, hitches a ride then starts the Arizona Trail immediately taking a wrong turn to a view.
- On the right trail, it's a slippery path of ball-bearing stones to a remnant of border wall like a shark fin against a destroyed landscape.
- Heading back up, she's cheered on by tourists and given beta by another hiker for an ideal camp spot on a peninsula jutting into the sky just before the sky turns orange, darkness falling and her first night filled with stars.
MUSIC: Poema del Pastor Coya by Angel Lasala as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano
