Silver Drip Trail is a 7.1-mile out-and-back hike in the Gila Wilderness, part of the Glenwood Ranger District of Gila National Forest in New Mexico. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail climbs from about 8,049 feet to 9,325 feet, a gain of 1,462 feet, making it a moderate route for those comfortable with a steady, fairly steep ascent. The trail's high point of 9,325 feet sits well above the low point of 8,049 feet, and the round-trip distance of 7.1 miles pairs with the elevation gain to make for a full day on foot. The route lies entirely within designated wilderness, so plan on a trip that respects the backcountry setting. Several other trails start close by. Redstone Trail #206 is about 1.6 miles away, and Golden Link Trail #218 and Little Dry Trail #180 are each about 1.8 miles off. Hanging Rock Trail is roughly 1.9 miles from the trailhead.
