A first time visitor to Coco's Corner


I found this on Expedition Portal - a nice take on someplace we've become accustomed to visiting - good photos too!

Nope


We did not Robert - but that wasn't our video, just happened upon it. We'll be at Coco's in less than weeks and keep an eye out!

If anyone knows if he needs anything (else) - post it here please.

I have never been there, nor has Les - that was a nice read.




Come visit La Bocana

road between Gonzaga and Hwy 1


I am curious as to the road between Gonzaga and Hwy 1 that goes by Coco's. How much has been paved? My last visit a few years ago the pavement reached as far south as Papa Fernandez's place in Gonzaga. I've searched high and low on this site and cannot find a recent update. I've never had difficulty approaching Gonzaga from Hwy 1 and am intending on taking that road at the end of this month.

Thanks. Kind of sad really. It used to hold a slight chance of adventure, not all of it fun - but adventure none the less (failed suspension; driving it at night; broken lug nuts, great fishing, high wind camping etc... ) and always a lot of beauty.
