Has anyone driven the road from GB to BOLA?


I am looking to drive through the dirt from Gonzaga to Chapala on 10/3, I plan on stopping in to see Coco and bring him some goodies. Has anyone been through since the storm?

Hi. Can someone give me a rough estimate on the drive time from Gonzaga Bay out to Hwy-1, assuming an off-road capable but slow RV?

Would it be realistic to make it to San Ignacio before sunset if we leave early?

Figure anywhere between 2 and 3 hours. I did it in 2 hr 20 in and was not in a hurry.
