Matomi Narrows Underwater!

Three photos were sent to me from Mark Naugle of Locos Mocos... Pre-running the San Felipe 250 was about 6 miles of in the water driving this weekend!

Thanks David - sure more than I expected there, but that's a big drainage.

Are you coming down??

Last time I saw that much water in Arroyo Matomi, down from the ranch house... I became 'one with the river'!

Lou, there's a good chance Elizabeth and I will come down Friday night... probably hook up with Tunaeater and TW at RM 130, then follow them to the east end of Matomi at Hwy. 5. San Felipe was insane to get across when I was near the start two years ago, then moved to the sulfur mine.

Here's the same spot my Subaru got stuck in the Matomi river, but much dryer last President's day...

That would be fun to run through on a hot day with the spray in your face to cool off.

Got that right TW, but the days havn't been hot down here.

There's some side streets to get across town but you have to plan ahead to use them.

:biggrin:
