I did the same, but in the dark trying to get to GN after a late start, and a prolonger border search which included dogs, secondary and then customs. all after a green light of course:?:

I figured this saved me over a 1/2 hr of driving over turd roads.

Yep. That GN stretch sucks. Did it in July and it still sounds the same. Got stuck behind an 18 wheeler and wanted to go completely off road to pass the buttcrack but had my family in the truck so I didn't.

Anyone consider using another route to Baja Sur, if you aren't in a rush and have a 4WD or 'good enough' vehicle?

a) via Bahia de los Angeles and Guillermo Prieto (paved and graded 2WD roads).
b) via the original transpeninsular main road from Rosarito or from near the El Tomatal jcn. to El Arco and on south (unimproved and graded roads)
