No Mystery! I have climbed that dry falls in Arroyo Pintada several times. That is a favorite day trip, I enjoy hiking up that arroyo, red rock
canyon walls and a new vista around every turn. There is a picture of Earl Stanley Gardner's group camped at that spot in one of his books, maybe
"Hidden Heart of Baja." And of course Bruce is right, the other one is La Trinidad.

that is a favorite day trip of ours too...lots of history on those walls. The Plug Rock is an old friend.
La Trinidad is an easy hike and another good petroglyph find.David K - 3-14-2005 at 07:46 AM
