Mulege to San Juanico and back, quick rip.

opens with 4 errors
shows with an empty folder in Google Earth Pro
and it shows one track
somebody butchered the file(s)

Thanks for the feedback, works for some not for others. It's a file I exported from backcountry navigator. Heres a screen shot. It was a fun trip, I will post some pics shortly.




Maybe....struggling with this on my new whiz-bang tablet

Weird, because when I click on the link and download it it ask me what I want to open it with and it gives me Google Earth as an option.

It might be on my end because my Google Earth is the one with the El Camino Real waypoints. I just didn't see any track line for your trip, but I have for others on it? I can try by opening up a fresh Google Earth file. I was on part of the road, to get to Mission Guadalupe, last year. Very pretty country up there!

Oh well, here's the story on the trip. We just purchased a home in Punta Chivato. We made a trip down to bring some furnishings and get the house ready for us. I couldn't handle it any longer and talked my wife into making a trip across the peninsula and back. It was just a quick turnaround over one day spend the night and back the next. Our first of many trips I hope.


Lots of green desert, water crossings, goats wanting beer, road side tail gate picnics, tail pipes that don't want to stay put, boats that Sergio his way with, roads that weren't and more green, green desert.

Thanks Tom... I would see something even with my color-blindness, but just not know if it was red or green. It would be hard for me to see if the background was a similar color. That is why I appreciate you making track lines yellow or blue or white... I see those bright colors quite well, just reds and greens are difficult for me.

Here's a shot of the non road detour. I circled the Mexican road signs (arrows on rocks).

GREAT! Is that San Miguel in the last image? Did you see the cemetery there? It was built on top of the mission visita church.

David, I'm not sure, I really don't know many of the land marks and sites yet. The camera I took the picture with has GPS coordinates logged for each picture, I'll check. I'm hoping you guys will chime in and point things out you may recognize and point me towards some sites we missed. Being it was our first outing, we were focused on getting to San Juanico and seeing what would could along the way.
Thanks for the compliment on the truck.

Thanks, DouglasP, for the photos, the map, and the report. So much to see in that area. I've done that road from Mulege, but headed northwest to the Mission Guadalupe ruins, on to San Jose de Magdalena and back to Hwy 1, when the whole loop was possible to drive. Some of the most beautiful scenery I've seen in Baja (which is saying a lot!) . . . twisting canyons and ghostly white wild fig . . . photos can't even do it justice.

Hola DouglasP and TWFP. Boy what a fun trip for your first across Baja. That is a fun road and the land is beautiful. Glad to see the NEW Toyota worked well for you. I'm like gueribo, I like the Mission Guadalupe and the area around it. Go next time in your can-am and camp out there. MUCHOOO Fun. Meany

Loads perfectly in both Google Earth and Back Country Navigator on my phone. Also loads fine on Windows. On your PC you can change the color and weight of any track in GE. [Edited on 11-3-2018 by JZ]

Ghostly white wild fig!

We will definitely head up to Guadalupe, thanks for the tip. "Ghostly white wild fig", do tell. Haven't heard this before.
