Howard, are you going to start your trip at k59 or k136?


Probably at K59 as K136 is to far north to enter from Loreto. Maybe I'll take a ride in the car to explore what if anything is around the K59 area to see if there is a place to safely leave the cars and trailers. I suppose worse case scenario we will just drive the SXS's from Loreto to the K59 turn off.

It's a great dilemma to have!

The restaurant at Rosarito (Km. 62) or a ranch west of the highway on the road to La Purísima, perhaps are places to leave them during your trip?

Started in Loreto and trailered the SXSx to the San Basilio turn off and 1.6 miles in there is a gate that they opened for us and graciously let us keep the vehicles there where it was very safe.

Drove up the highway to KM59 in our 3 SXS's did the turn off for San Ysidro, made it to La Parisima for the night and a home cooked farm dinner. She made up some fresh squeezed Guava juice and the devil made me pour some Vodka over ice and I was a very happy camper. Took off for San Juanico for 2 nights, retraced our steps to La Parisima for one night then to the vehicles and then trailered back to Loreto.

On 1 1-10 scale this was a 10+, everything went well with absolutely no hiccups.

Beautiful country and people and we ate very well with no break downs. 87 octane available in La Parisima and San Juanico.

I highly recommend that route if you have an off road RZR or comparable. It would of been very rough in a 4 wheel vehicle. Just under 200 miles on the SXS including maybe a 20 miles ride down the beach. Unfortunately saw around 12 dead turtles washed up on shore.
