Geoff,

I'm currently running the red label General Grabbers on my truck. Mine are wearing down pretty quickly and I have a friend that has them and is experiencing the same. There is also the Grabber AT2 (I think it's called) that might last longer. The Grabbers were WAY cheaper than BFG's though.

Yup, another big thanks for that report.

I find myself agreeing with you since my moto trip a few weeks ago. The big greed with big money is back. We can only hope it gets derailed and try to keep ourselves from getting locked out.

What an amazing report and incredible pics. Thanks sooooo much for taking the time to post.

Baja is changing, our town changes every single day and we are small, very small.





Come visit La Bocana

Thanks for the photos. The Scorpion Bay photo shows exactly why the place is so popular. Did you have a longboard with you?

In this 2014 trip, his photos are all thumbnails in the first post, click to enlarge.

If you are seeking his newest trip, look for (2019) in the title.
Geoffff did a post "Poking Around Baja" showing the pot farm he stumbled upon on the 2019 trip but did remove his original drone photos showing that and the two workers... Fearing safety for his family, I guess?

Yes, this is an older trip of mine from 2014. In that case I wrote it up on my website first, so the full story is there... http://octopup.org/baja2014/gulf-north
