Looks like the spider web trail that they ran on the rip to the tip! I would love to find that one for sure...

Go onto Google Earth and see it about 3 miles north of Punta (Cabo) Colonet. It sure looks like a fun ride and what I would enjoy doing when I rode a trail bike!

I am surprised to not see bajatrailrider in this thread? Larry is probably out enjoying the perfect conditions of sunshine after so many weeks of rain?

There is also interesting coastline and geology north of San Antonio del Mar and south of Ejido Eréndira!

I'm on mobile and haven't checked it out yet on GE. How hard does it look to get to the trail head at the coast?

You can drive right to the lower end of the canyon from Colonet or San Antonio del Mar and not go on the beach.

There are lots of road and many fences and gates in that area. It's probably best to plot a path or 2 or 3 on Google Earth.

Here are a couple of images from GE, I think I have the right location.

Pin 1 is at the bottom of the hill as you come in from the Hwy.


Pin 2 is a junction where you can join the trail closer to the ocean.

We plan to be at Cal's Saturday March 2nd, plan to ride Sunday and Maybe Monday before we head South. There are only 3 of us, so I'm sure there will be room. I will talk to Larry when we get closer to the day, you might send him a message.

The line is the auto road down to the trail, where the lower end of the bike ride begins (or ends). The line then goes the short distance in the arroyo to the beach.

I have been stopping there for years, very cool spot, though there was a lot more garbage last year. I'd post a pic but I just forgot how
