Where was I?

Come on, you old guys! DK has not been here!

That is true, but I know where to find it (thanks to you)!

Hey, I was born 3 months and 1 week after it was made!

Well, I am "old", but it does not ring a bell in my head, Neal. But I have probably been there.

Barry

1974 Auto Club Map from Barry A

I will make a better close up... stand by!

Can you see it now?

Yes, I can see it now-------sure wish I had that fine map

(actually, it shows up on my 1976 Auto Club map, too)

I have been all around that Campo, but never actually there--------really remote spot-------

Well done, Neal (and David).

tripledigitken No prize for you.

DK I should have eliminated you! Who will eliminate this mad hoser for me????

Back in the day, when the only maps were the AAA and aero sectionals of Baja I checked it out. Now I can only find the start of the road on Google Earth. There is a nice concrete slab there with something scratched in it. First photo wins a Baja Prize.

Here you are on Google Earth at the start of the road East.

Am I being challenged???

Always!!!

Yah, I kind of get that impression... You old(er) guys are tough!

No, we are going as soon as you post your trip report from our Lost Missing Expedition (7 months ago)!

The resolution is not the best in this region, so no way to see concrete slabs or the pila... The GPS at the 'end of road' is 31.745 x 115.458 ... Is that close to where you found La Victoria?

You all are missing Neal's real question!

That's NOT NICE John!!!

Neal may have been the on the EL CAMINO REAL at the same time as the Jesuits, but he still is as sharp as a cholla!







In fact THAT is Neal Johns removing a cholla from DavidE's leg (10 years ago)!

Well. DK, John is right. The last time I was there I could not find the road going east across the arroyos and that was a few years ago. GE shows the start east so I am counting on you guys to find CLV again.
Your WP is about the right distance (maybe a little too far south) and it looks like a road so....?
PS You are right about John M, he is not a nice man.

I think the GPS reading is long gone. Besides, GPS had not been invented when I passed through on my John - I mean Burro. Sorry, John.
