How recent the rains? The storms back in February? Hook - 10-28-2019 at 04:52 PM
I dont think rains in February can do that kind of damage, in that location. Probably it was Hurricane Lorena or Narda in September.MulegeAL - 10-28-2019 at 07:31 PM
So does it have a guardrail now? Last time I was down there it was wide open off the edge. Must be passable (with some difficulty) to get that shot.bajarich - 10-28-2019 at 08:39 PM
Hi Mjed! hey, the linky above no workie!
Needs an edit, or do we have to pay in Loonies?
Cheers, safe travels.

Thanks Lencho! There went another hour of life energy!
That is a great trip, gonna do it again this winter, even if its still an in and out trip. I haven't heard that the other ways out are passable, even
for a bike, and that area took a hit or two from recent rains/tormentos.
The video is from 2015. The pavement in 2017 ended at Km. 10.
In the video, the grade down begins at Minute 25 and goes to Minute 37+. The road to San Cosme is before Minute 38.
The video never gets to Agua Verde, as he turned around before reaching the beautiful bay. How come, Ged?

The Quijano family is the family that owns the land and runs the cows at ranch Ultima Agua and Rancho Palo Blanca. There have always been some
family members who want to cash out the land but I don't think it is currently for sale. The Quijanos has been fighting the Ejido to maintain control
of their land for several years. The Ejido wants to develop it all.
An heir to the Ross Dress for Less fortune built the big house at San Cosme and was going to subdivide it into houses for the Uber Rich, but that
never developed either. He has dug a small marina at San Cosme.
He had a web sight advertising the poperty at one time but it was taken down.

We were there around Nov 7 and the road was perfect no damage at all ... stayed for a week, very few others, perfect weather, and I won’t bore you
with the photos. Swam every morning at 6:30 am, SUP all day around the bay ... camped on the ejido beach this time. chippy - 12-3-2019 at 09:16 AM
With the recent rains is the road into Agua Verde still open? Might be headed that way soon.
It was open mon 25. I drove down and it was pretty much empty. It was really cloudy and starting to sprinkle so I left. Lotsa rain since then so be
aware.vandy - 12-3-2019 at 11:25 AM
I'm going down today.
No phone service there so no report until I come out to Puerto Escondido in a few days.mrioux - 1-16-2020 at 04:03 PM
Anyone been down to Agua Verde recently, wondering about road condition down driving a suburban pulling a tent trailer. Good or bad idea? airmech - 1-16-2020 at 04:12 PM

We go alot to Agua Verde and one time we thought it would be fine to tow a Boston Whaler behind a small pick up...turns out even that was too long and
we had to rebuild corners with rock to make them on a few tight corners...never did that again...got a smaller baby panga and it was fine.Mr. Bills - 1-16-2020 at 06:58 PM
gross, heres hoping im dead before they ruin such a magical placeWarf - 6-4-2020 at 08:31 AM
Friends have a bunch of school supplies to take up to Agua Verde from La Paz. Anyone have recent information about the road conditions? They're
driving an older Ford Bronco. Thanks in advance for any current info.JZ - 6-4-2020 at 10:31 AM
See the post above from Jan saying it was in good shape.
This is a heavily traveled road with very few problems. BigBearRider - 6-11-2020 at 01:18 AM
Drove it today. It won’t be a problem. There’s a short section being repaired around km 38 or do that would be tricky to navigate with a trailer.
Otherwise the road is fine.
