Baja Steve: I was down there this week and the only change is a couple of new culverts caved in that are not well marked yet, the ore trucks break through and it leaves a 22" X 6' hole , watch out at the vados, locals try to keep them marked by 3 rocks, beer cans, poles sticking out of them, old tires or anything to catch the eye. These occur on for 15 miles N and about 8 miles S of Puertecitos.

South of Volcan Prieta, and before you climb up to the mountain pass, be careful of the HUGE boulder that has rolled down onto the road. If you come around that turn in bright sunlight and the dark rock is in the shadows, it would be easy to hit it :o
