Look out for these people!
Probably the most dangerous thing you could do to yourself and the motorist that must pass you! The book c1988, has many dirt road rides, however

Airports of Baja by Arnold Senterfitt
David K - 11-22-2004 at 11:57 PM
The pilot's Baja guidebook. This edition I was given for Christmas in 1972. It was for sale in the book store in Mission Valley Mall. Arnold would
send update notes and revision pages that easily were added as this was a loose leaf binder book. 1977 was the last updated pages I got. The book was
changed to regular binding and some editions included all of Mexico...

Camping and Climbing in Baja
David K - 11-23-2004 at 12:43 AM
One of the La Siesta Press Baja books by John W. Robinson c1967 with several revised editions. I have 1971, 1972, & 1983 editions in my library. This
is an excellent road and trail guide to Baja Norte's two big sierras and the east side canyons. Climbing Diablo mountain is featured.

Is seeing these books interesting?
David K - 11-23-2004 at 11:23 PM
Shall I continue...? When I get back from Baja, that is.
I am putting about 6 images per thread max. because the time it takes to open because too long to wait. I mean after all, it's not like there's naked
girls (or guys) here... Just some old Baja books...

Wow, more books I've never seen........where are you going in Baja David?
David K - 11-24-2004 at 12:39 AM
Hi Mexitron, I posted my plans a few minutes after I posted the note you responded to... BajaCactus and I are going to El Rosario together and he has
new TVs, a pump, and some finish work to do on the 12 new rooms at his motel. We mostly wanted to talk about Baja during the long drive, and since my
kids don't want to go this time it seemed like it would be fun for Antonio and I to car-pool down. He can help me with my Spanish, too.
He has wanted to show me some of the special places around Rosario and it is a very historic place... home to the First Dominican mission in
California (1774), before our birth as a nation! We can also work on some ideas for Baja Cactus Cultural Fiesta II, coming next summer for all you
Nomads...
