The route Jaeger took yesterday, when he hiked from the well in the mountains to Interstate 8, followed the course of the San Cristobal Wash. For him it was a difficult trail to follow on foot, and you soon discover that it is an even harder one to negotiate in a pick-up truck. The broken ground is deeply rutted and littered with boulders, and it takes more than an hour to make the fifteen-mile climb to the well.

The well itself is located at the bottom of a bowl-shaped gully, shaded from the sun by two peaks of the Mohawk Mountains. A pump house stands beside the bore-hole, to which is affixed a sign that reads:

- LUKE AIR FORCE RANGE - GARCIA WELL - US. GOVT. PROPERTYKEEP OUT! + + LUKE AIR FORCE RANGE + GARCIA WELL + US. GOVT. PROPERTYKEEP OUT! +

You park the pick-up beside the pump house and Jaeger helps you unload the containers. I had to draw the water up by hand yesterday, he says, nodding towards the bore-hole, cause I couldnt get the pump to work. I reckon its OKjus needs some gasolene, thats all. Maybe if we could siphon some fuel from the truck we could get its engine running. Itd save us a whole lotta hard work.

The route Jaeger took yesterday, when he hiked from the well in the mountains to Interstate 8, followed the dry watercourse of the San Cristobal Wash. For him it was a difficult trail to follow on foot, and you soon discover that it is even harder to negotiate in a pick-up truck. The broken ground is deeply rutted and littered with boulders, and progress is painfully slow.

Rather than continue in this direction, you decide to try a more indirect route that takes you west, away from the Wash, across an expanse of desert. By chance you happen upon the remains of a dirt road that winds southwards into the mountains. You stay with this track and, although its surface is far from perfect, you make good time.

At length you reach a ridge that overlooks the well. The site itself is located at the bottom of a bowl-shaped gully, shaded from the sun by two of the Mohawks highest peaks. A pump house stands beside the bore-hole, to which is affixed a sign that reads:

- LUKE AIR FORCE RANGE - GARCIA WELL - US GOVT. PROPERTYKEEP OUT! + + LUKE AIR FORCE RANGE + GARCIA WELL + US GOVT. PROPERTYKEEP OUT! +

Carefully you descend, following the dirt road as it zigzags towards the site. You are within a few hundred yards of your destination when you are faced by an unexpected hazard. You take a sharp right bend to find that a section of the road beyond has collapsed. You brake, but the wheels skid on the loose stones and the rear of the truck starts to slide out towards the edge. Frantically you fight to correct the skid as the truck slides nearer and nearer to the edge of the steep ravine.

You follow the highway for a quarter of a mile until you come to a junction. Directly ahead you see a large building with a sign that says:

- AJO FIRE STATION - PIMA COUNTY + + AJO FIRE STATION + PIMA COUNTY +

You feel sure that the local fire department would have a map of the local area, so you drive onto the forecourt and park near the main door. Covering your face against the stinging wind, you leave your roadster and run towards the building. Inside the lobby, bathed in the light from your vehicles headlamps, you find a laminated town map fixed to the counter. You grab a pen lying nearby and hurriedly note directions to the hospital on the back of your left hand.

As you turn to leave you notice an open door off to your left.
