Native American Tribe Series

Pinal Coyotero

A part of the Coyotero Apache, whose chief rendezvous was the Pinal mountains and their vicinity, north of Gila River in Arizona. They ranged, however, about the sources of the Gila, over the Mogollon Mesa, and from northern Arizona to the Gila and even southward. They are now under the San Carlos and Ft Apache agencies, where they are officially classed as Coyoteros.

They are reputed by tradition to have been the first of the Apache to have penetrated below the Little Colorado among the Pueblo peoples, with whom they intermarried. They possessed the country from San Francisco mountains to the Gila until they were subdued by Gen. Crook in 1873. Since then they have peaceably tilled their land at San Carlos.

White, for several years a surgeon at Ft Apache, says that they have soft, musical voices, uttering each word in a sweet, pleasant tone. He noted also their light-hearted, childish ways and timid manner, their pleasant expression of countenance, and the beauty of their women. Married women tattooed their chins in three blue vertical lines running from the lower lip.

Put some miles on while caching today! I started out in Parker for the event, some lab caches, and working on my 360 degrees of Colorado challenge. Peace love pi was going to join me, but felt a little under the weather. I wound up meeting her a little north of here to visit a cache on its birthday, and we wound up in Brighton. We didn't have a lot of time, so we picked this power trail nearby. I didn't realize it, but we hit about 26 caches in an hour and a half. We replaced logs and containers as needed. Sorry for the cut and paste logs mondou2, but I didn't take good notes. Thanks for the smiley! Find #3352.

Today @WindAtMyBack and I headed to the eastern plains to grab as many caches as possible after a busy morning. The cold of the past week has put a severe cramp in my caching style. Today that ends! The temperature was between 27 degrees all the way up to a comparatively balmy 32. Despite our suffering and chilled fingers it was obvious we weren't alone. I saw a bald eagle (twice), two Marlins, several magpies, a hawk, and best of all, for the first time ever, I saw pheasants. Three males and a female. Pretty cool day for sure! 41 caches found and only 2 DNF's.
This is one of the specific caches we targeted and found. Tftc!
