Rancho San Carlos is about 16 miles SE of Ensenada. You turn off at the Baja Country Club and go east. Great place to relax.

Hi Bacquito,
Place some space between the image links... I use a double space between the links when I put up multiple photos from photobucket onto Nomad... I use single space below the image to seperate it from any caption... You can go back with edit and fix!

Guys, BajaCat has posted numerous photos on the San Carlos hot springs... :rolleyes:

Thanks David, With all my trying, I might qualify to be an elite Nomad by the time I figure it all out.

On photobucket how do you include captions, titles?

I don't, on Photobucket... It only stores the photo (resized to 15" screen) for posting on Nomad.

Below (or above) the photo link you paste on Nomad, you type the caption you want or anything... your trip report, laced with photos, etc.

For example...

Here is the sea lion near Punta Lobos photo (below):



I double space the distance from the photobucket link to THIS text and the text above.

The photobucket link is the bottom one of this group that pops up when you put your mouse over your photobucket photo...

Email & IM
Direct Link
HTML Code
IMG Code

Copy that IMG Code URL and paste it right here on the Nomad page you type onto.

Double space between photo links and text to make it look seperate and neat... if you wish!

Good luck!

Good spotting! I suspect it is natural but the next time I'm there I'll check it out.

Is the hotsprings pool very hot? Is it continually flowing in? Can you camp? Is it clean? Are there bathrooms? What's the cost?

Is that water on the road all year? Even in summer? You mentioned cars. Just don't want to get stuck in a sedan. Only saw trucks in your photos. What's the clearance?

Bacquito:

I contacted you last year after you posted photos of the rancho. With your directions, we made it there last October, while spending some time in Ensenada. Just went for the day, but in the middle of the week, it was lovely, very peaceful, even though there were a number of people there as well.

The different temperature pools catered to my partner's and my differing needs around "hot" water. I don't like the hot, hot, but it was terrific.

Afterward, I really enjoyed wandering around in the bushes, looking for interesting and/or new plants to photograph and study. The 4-5 water crossings were shallow and fun, with cool plants to see as well.

Didn't had a chance to go back last Spring when we were again in Ensenada for a prolonged stay, but it's on our schedule for an upcoming trip.

Thanks!
