The 'Baja Bound' Road Guide On-line Edition for 2025


https://vivabaja.com/baja-bound-road-guide/

Most of you know how much time and effort went into producing this guide. It was so disappointing that its publishing was delayed after it was initially finished in 2018. Then Covid had shut down Baja travel for so many and thus the guide was postponed again.

Next came issues with the person who was hired to 'dress up' my work to look 'super-professional'... basically, he created the book cover and little more (that I have seen). No amount of prodding or emails and phone calls from me or Baja Bound seemed to get him back at the task!

This year, 2025, after having shared parts of my work the past couple of years, I am now sharing all of my work. Included are updates that were made to include the latest highway advances, plus sad news like the passing of Coco in 2022 and the burning down of Cowpatty Cantina, near Puertecitos.

This guide is not perfect and the photos are from 7+ years ago, but I want all my amigos here to see the guide in this 'on-line' edition. Baja Bound may still publish it with a snappier look, and I hope you buy one if they do. After all, the Internet is not everywhere for you to follow my guide as you travel (unless you have Starlink!).

Makes great 'armchair' adventuring... with driving details and color photos and maps. Kilometer markers are used where they are on highways and odometer miles on the unpaved roads: https://vivabaja.com/baja-bound-road-guide/
