Edited as the Post Images link wasn't working (for me, anyway) and replaced to links from my Central Baja trip album on VivaBaja.com

Is that the grade between San Francisquito and Rancho Piedra Blanca?



If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

Yes, now paved with concrete (since at least 2016). In 2012 and 2001, my previous drives over it, it was graded dirt. In 1983, my first drive over it, it was a bit more challenging.

The old auto club guides warned of its difficulty... and why it got the name "the grade that rules'!
