Las Flores Railroad
The engine is from Las Flores to the Terminal Platform railroad. The mine car is from the San Juan mountaintop railroad (notice it is not the same
gauge, track width).

Excellent post David.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Nacho's Camp El Huerfanito
I was asked about what was at Huerfanito for the $10 camping fee... this is it:
KM. 103:
The next signed campo (Campo Tano, Km. 105.5) had even LESS!

Finally got around to going through your trip report David. Lots of very nice photos, indeed! Is the Cowpatty Bar and Grill still around?

Yes, and there were customers when I drove by (stopping only to record the GPS). It is at Km. 73 and the Facebook page is www.facebook.com/cowpattybaja

Hi, Peter, that is exactly why I am doing this... plus it is fun for me to travel all the roads of Baja that I can! Have a great time and feel free to
add your discoveries here or in your own trip report!
Note, I have a lot more data to share in the near future (I am writing it up now). This Nomad post is just a selection of photos and travel notes.

Have you ever been sitting there (maybe fishing with your daughter in Baja...) and gotten that feeling that someone is watching you?
Here's another shot of that awesome camp site!

Thanks for the great report, David K. I'm a little late to the game but did I read correctly that you stopped in at Bahia Las Animas? If so, how was
the road in?
That looks like a great campsite near Gonzaga.

It was ok, tougher than my previous visit in 2009, but no issues in my Tacoma. The 2016 rain has done a number on most backcountry roads. The fish
camp was abandoned on New Years 2017 when I was there. This was the first of now 4 research trips into Baja. This week, I returned from exploring the
remote Pacific roads north of Guerrero Negro.
