We always stay at the BLM camping just south of Joshua Tree park on Saturday night. The next day we leave early to cross at Mexicali East on Sunday
morning. No traffic, or cops. Seems like the entire town has a hangover 😎
Our plan was to drive south and stay at Punta Final to do some kayaking but the wind and rain were crazy so we headed to hills We camped in some
boulders out of the weather. Amazing place ! Like a desert garden.
Baja version of Joshua Tree.
The next day we headed to the Pacific side hoping to get out of the wind. I decided to experiment with a very sandy road out to a remote beach. The
locals said I would make it but I would have to keep my momentum going in the deep sand. I aired down a bit to 50 rear and 40 front. A little F350
surfing was required but we got there. Beautiful spot all to ourselves.
Nice spot at the end of the road.
Why I love Baja ! We use an old 5 gal can for a fire pit. More heat, less smoke and uses less firewood.
We moved along a road up a ridge to camp on the bluffs and watch the whales blow.
Nice viewing spot at the lighthouse.
The next day we drove down to Mulege. We were happy to see they have finally repaired the road going through Santa Rosellia. I know everyone has
their own special town in Baja but for me nothing compares to Mulege! |
