Which cave paintings?

Montevideo and Las Tinajitas are both off the north San Borja road.

I posted several photos of Montevideo taken last September. See the Baja Extreme 2016 trip report.

It's in the next valley north of San Borja, suggest you contact Josďż˝ to guide you or one of his sons, very reasonable cost. It will be a good thing.

Here is Jose's son's card, and he can contact his dad (who doesn't speak English) for you...

Did both roads to San Borja today and yesterday, camping at the mission palapas. The west road from Nuevo Rosarito is very rocky, slower than my last time in 2009. Big campers and motorhomes should avoid.
The north road is superior for the north half and pretty rocky the south half. The better of the two choices.

By chance do any of you recent visitors to BOLA happen to know if there is cell service or diesel available?
Thanks!

Diesel yes, at the first station. No cell, but wifi available at various places.
