Russ, I made the right turn off Hwy 1 and headed east. I came across a local parked about 4 miles of the Hwy and ask him if I could make it to Chivato... His reply was "No" Arroyo too deep.... I say screw it, gonna try anyway!

After a couple more slow miles I come across a gringo in a Chev truck - Stuck... He says he knows you.

We hook him up and pull him out, I hand him your stuff and give him some gas and a couple cases of water... We are now out of supplies- Adios! back to Calif.



The road to Chivato...

Shouldn\'t one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check or Sec.8 housing?
........... I had to pass one to earn it for them!

Punta Chivato (PCH) Runway etc.


Cheers fellow PCH pilots and home owners, John Watkins was able to get Special permission( to fly his Piper Super Cub to Punta Chivato Saturday 9/20) from Mario Landeros, the Commandant at MMLT ( who told MMSF it was ok for John to file to PCH). Mario required Giuseppe to call him and approve the flight also. The approval was based on John reporting back to MMLT with the condition of PCH including pictures. John will get the pictures to Mario Landeros on Tuesday. The important thing here is that PCH is in great condition, (John says as good as he has seen it) John says even the taxiway is okay including no ruts and no issue at the arroyo. As always the best surface landing 31 is slightly left of centerline. A Mexican Government King Air C 90 was in the area inspecting and saw John’s yellow cub and radio’d asking if PCH was ok to land ( the Palo Verde strip was not useable) , with John’s report, they landed and barely made tire tracks.
Also John reports he didn’t see any property damage at PC. And the cell phone system is working from Punta Chivato.
All very good news!
Rick
