South of LA Bay


Anyone been on the dirt road south of LA Bay toward San Francisquito lately? I’m heading to Animas in a few weeks and want to allow enough time to arrive before dark.
Thanks
Sam

NORRA 1000 went thru this week. Should be a bit rough but no problem with a decent rig. What are you driving?

I haven't read any concerns on the many Facebook pages I look at daily.

Las Animas is a special location, indeed... I would suggest you use a 4x4.

My camp there, north facing beach past the mangroves, on New Years Eve 2017:

I was at Las Animas in mid-January. I was driving a Honda Element, which is at about the low end of the spectrum for off-road adventures. You should have no problem if you are driving just about any other 4x4 with soft tires.

I have been in there about a half dozen times, and usually there are few (if any) other campers. This year it was a bit crowded.




If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!
