Thank you David I found this bent up sign. In Creek bed . About 12 miles below park in Forest. I fixed it up now in garage I'm told by forest ex boss over 30 years old. I do remember seeing these type signs in mid 80s. On Moto trips below park long time ago. Any one else?

Maybe none here old enough that would have seen them. :) When I found it I remembered where I saw them on old road below forest on South side . Near hot spring rancho. It was bent up from river running. So I got my body and fender hammer put tape on it. To not destroy the paint work used Dolly on other side. Looking good.

Valladares? It has a lot of history and was named for a member of the 1769 Serra expedition to San Diego, who died there.

I was told about the Valladares hot spring many years ago (Nomad Gila Oro & McGeiver). Gold mining area, too, from 1890-1905.
I have never read about a hot spring there so it is nice when Baja has some surprises!

Yes David that area is where I found sign. The hot springs rancho was open 4 years ago. No mass. Would like to show you.
