INEGI website has an online map that has most all of the geographic names for INEGI geographic/map products.

If you wait a bit, Mr. Map will probably post all of the gringo-made maps for that area. I predict he will post no less than 5 ;D

INEGI G12A23
SF La S = 27 35.1, -113 01
Lotsa summits S of SF La S.
Only name shown nearby is "Pinturas Rupostres Cueva del Raton"

INEGI topo (G12A23) doesn't list a name
Baja Almanacs (neither version) don't list a name
none of my maps (I have a few) list a name
it's a true Baja mystery

Harald, I guess its time to drive there and ask the locals.

pinturas rupostres indicates cave paintings---could be worth the trip.

I'll try to post both map portions in this one reply, otherwise it'll be two replies - so, I can't figure out how to add two images to one post, oh well.
