Motoged's First Baja Surf Trip


Nomads,
I have just returned from a fantastic and magical surfing trip to Baja.

I can't tell you where I was chasing the Mavericks (Woody would kill me), but I have some video coverage of me shredding las olas grandes :cool:

One of the best surf films I have seen Ged, great! I sure like that 4WD camper with great flotation tires driving so easily through the dunes!

I bet it is Woody's 'secret point' too... GPS: 2@º48.09' x 11#@^&%!

(GPS edited by the sacred gods of surf secrets)

being stuck at San Clemente Island (windy, but the surf is pumping) i can't open it as we are stuck with worse than dial up. i'm sure Ged was shredding and left me a geo cache under the obvious big cactus. can't wait to dig it up!

When ged and I were on our excellent Baja bike ride I saw him leave more than one "geo cache" under a big bush, I can give you gps coordinates to the site if you want to go and dig it up:lol::lol:

Pretty cool.......and, there are no secret spots anymore...some are just harder to get to than others.

Woody,

And DK....I made sure the van tires were at your recommended pressure :light:
