Trips


Trudy Angel has been outfitting and guiding such trips to the remote ranches in the Sierra Giganta and Sierra Guadalupe for many years.

Check out her site at: http://www.tourbaja.com/horseback_riding_pack_trips_baja_cal...

A great movie about the ranchero life is: "Corazón Vaquero"




Certainty is the child of ignorance, knowledge is the mother of doubt. Question everything!

I highly recommend to anyone to get out there and visit a remote baja ranch...you will be amazed and delighted. Trudy is my heroine and her trips would be nothing short of stupendous.

Or just take up that rancher's offer to visit him...the one you met and chatted with at the store....but do plan to spend the night at least as there will be so much to see and do...the catre cots are super comfy...just bring a sleeping bag and your favorite pillow and you are in for the sleep of a lifetime....

but bring some treats along to leave...something they cant get...like flower seeds, nice coffee beans maybe, flavoured powder stuff for their coffee, thread for their embroidery work and charge that camera battery up good...it is so picturesque.

Wonderful comparison... only a mule can decide not to move whenever he doesn't want to!:smug:

Fantastic series of photos Jeff! I really enjoyed this.
