Bumped into this oldie. Contingency for the Baja 1000 in Tijuana, early 90s. We were helping team Kia -- I am at the front right corner of the Sportage, hands raised. My wife took the photo from the second or third floor of a building under construction.

I am pretty sure that model Kia was introduced in the US in 1995. I still have a 96 that I leave in Anchorage for when I am up north. The basic frame and drive train is a Mazda design.

Where is the highest point?

TSThornton - 4-4-2022 at 09:07 AM

I'm not too savvy with with the maps and posting here, but Gaia just calls it "Sierra de la Laguna High Point" at 6759 feet with GPS coordinates of 23.53901, -109.95421. In the Sierra de la Laguna mountains between Santiago and Todos Santos. We did a one-way hike across over 4 nights a couple of weeks ago. It was amazing.

Ah, of course. Have always wanted to drive across Sierra de la Laguna (being lazy). Thanks!

which route did you take? Start - end?

TSThornton - 4-5-2022 at 01:48 PM

We started walking at the San Dionisio trailhead West of Santiago and finished at a ranch at the end of the trail about 10 miles east of Todos Santos. I don't know the name of that one. The route is on the AllTrails app. 2 days up, a layover day on top to climb the peaks, and 1 day out.

San Dionisio, and the road to it from Santiago, is on the Benchmark Baja Atlas, as well as "Sierra de la Laguna High Point" followed by "Highest point in Baja California Sur" and an elevation of 2,080 meters, is shown.

So true! I certainly have a number of photos of the inside of that place, but those images do not go public!

Welcome to Nomad! Because of size limits, many photos will not appear without adjusting their file size. To post a photo without the need to mess with its file size, follow these instructions... [from the top post in the Nomad photography forum]

To post photos from your Pictures folder on your computer...

Go to www.Postimages.org, make an album if you want to organize your photos to find them easily in the future (by date or by subject). No cost to use Postimages.org.

Change the upload setting from "Do not resize my image" to 640x480 (recommended for forums) or 800x600 (max. on Nomad). You click on the little arrow to see the size choices.

Click "Choose images" and select the photos you want to put on Nomad from your Pictures folder.

Click on the image you want on Nomad and click on "Share" at the top of the screen.

Choose "Hotlinks for forums" (down next to the last one). You can click the little box at the right end of the link and it is now saved on your mouse.

Go to Nomad and paste that link onto the place where you are typing on Nomad. You can put text in below the photo for a caption for your post and if you double space between photo links (for clarity), you can put several photos and captions in a single post on Nomad. You can click "Preview" on Nomad to check and see how it will look before posting to the board.

If you need to fix a post after it is done, click on "Edit" along the edge of your post, and change or delete your post. If you edit more than once, you can delete the previous Edited on tags so only one edit tag will appear after you edit the post.
