Wornout's Off-road Trips to San Felipe sites, on Relive. 2020 & 2021


Wornout leads weekly desert trips out from San Felipe and he has returned, posting them on Relive. Relive is an app that shows your trip on a satellite view map and shows any photos you took along the way, as well as your max speed and highest elevation. Interesting if you are into maps or Baja exploring.

SCROLL DOWN to see the latest trip...
==================================================================
JUNE 12, 2020:

This one was of today's run from San Felipe to 'Hidden Valley' and back... it is all in less than 2 minutes and with music: https://www.relive.cc/view/v1OwMy1XwEq




Wornout said I could post these here after I asked.

He used to post on Nomads but now he spends much more time in the desert with his latest companion. Read his posts on Nomad under his nomad name "Wornout"

Thanks David,
I do not always open facebook to get Wornout's trip feeds.
Sure is a good app, but I don't like the Relive price.

De nada, Paul!

Somehow, I got onto Wornout's email list, so these weekly trip links come to me automatically with his group emails.

Wornout is sort of continuing the tradition of previous El Dorado Ranch desert explorers like our late friends 'bajalou' and Bruce Barber (who wrote a super detailed book in 2003 on the San Felipe desert geology, canyons, and a couple other regions, titled "of Sea and Sand".

A bit over a year ago, when there was a hike to Diablo Canyon, his partner (Kat) who decided to wait midway in the hike and not to go up to the canyon, vanished upon the group's return.

The Relive app is free, but maybe upgrades cost? I loaded it on my phone in 2019 for the Trail of Missions Recon... but I didn't seem to get it fully and the results left a lot to be desired... LOL

RFClark... check your u2u inbox.

Cool thread. Glad they are getting out and having fun!

Was there ever any closure on the disappearance of Kat?

I do not think there was... vanished without a trace.

I just got an email from Wornout about RFClark's request to contact him:

"No problem, our Friday 'Social Separation' trips are open to everyone. We alway drive more than 6 feet apart. LOL"

Kat
Most of the locals think there was foul play.
No other explanation.
Me - I do not know. I was in the states at the time.

From what Jere received from Mike, via a phone call this morning is, The Sky Ranch is open, (as is most of Ensenada (their jurisdiction), the pool is clean, there are some fire pits in the camping area and the bar will be open.

Here is the deal (there is always a deal), Jere talked to Mike and received the following information.

Rooms are $70 - $75 per person (Includes dinner and breakfast)
Camping is $20 per car load
Meals for campers wanting meals: $35 per person and it includes both meals

The word 'cava' typically means wine cellar and not a cave (cueva).

Thanks Paul!
The Ojos Negros entrance is at Km. 39.5, for reference (4 kms = 2.4 miles from that point)
