Missions, Boojums, Finding Petroglyphs and more Nov. '05! (Part 2)
Continued from Part 1 at http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=14276
From Hwy. 1 to the fork north of San Antonio the road is very easy in 2WD, all graded and well signed.
This goes through some great boojum country!
Here is a BABY boojum!

My Tacoma on the good road near San Antonio... this changed greatly as we headed down towards El Cipres, as all the mountain ranches no longer use the
road to El Socorro it seems, so they don't maintain it like they do this one.

In the next part, we continue north, see blue palms, and the greatest thrill for me: finding a petroglyph site I did not know existed!

deformed Cordon?
This giant cardon cactus has produced a branch with abnormal (fasciated), fan-shaped growth, often termed "monstrose" growth form, unlike the normal,
cylindrical growth. Such events are quite rare. When this deformation occurs at the top of one of the prominent "arms" it is often referred to as
"crested." There is no agreement on what causes the abnormality, but damage from insects or frost are among the possibilities. Once it has been
formed, this type of growth is often perpetuated in all the subsequent growth of the branch.
Thanks David K. Always enjoy your photographic posts! Regards to Baja Angel.
