Costco parking lots
 I don,t remember six climbs,heading south it seemed like everything was up hill ,I guess it was the last climb that had the dreaded ledge,one year I had a buddy
follow me in a dodge van! and got hung up on that ledge,He woudn,t back down so I had to back down to him pass him a line and pull it was
he,s last trip in that rig.
One good thing about going home everything was down-hill but than I coudn,t stop.......But I did have a lot of fun on that road and always looked
forward to next time

Over the road south of Puertecitos to Gonzaga and back with my parents in 1965 and again in 1967 to L.A. Bay and back, in a Jeep Wagoneer.
I first drove it myself going north when I was 16 (1974) and again in 1975... in a dune buggy (VW Myers Manx)...
In '79 it was really trashed... hadn't been worked on in since all commercial traffic for Gonzaga was now coming in from the new Hwy. 1 (finished in
Dec. '73)... just got through barely in my 4WD Subaru... went home on Hwy. 1 (less an exhaust system).
In '85 or '86 they built the new graded road and it uses different grades and all less steep so 2WD vehicles can climb them.
'runner: Doug has an automated system that prevents certain words from appearing intact... to keep Baja Nomad PG-13. N-zi (as in the German Socialist
Part of the 1930's and 40's is also 'fixed' (as you will see when I post this).

Give us a list
David, and what might those words be (snicker, snicker)
can we get Doug to post an official list?
I have probably used most of those words (except N-zi) when traveling over the road aforementioned...

Baitcast- the truly dreaded ledge was between Rancho Cuarenta and La Purisima, after you came off the beach route headed South.
Now that one was all-time, hall of fame, world class UGLY!!
