Baja Almanac
I just noticed that Amazon.ca has listed a used Baja Sur Baja Almanac map for sale. It selling for over $100. Canadian. This is a little too rich for
me, but if some other Nomad wanted it it was there this am.

I keep hoping that the new one does become available. I saw a Baja Sur almanac sell for near $60. on Ebay a couple weeks ago, so there must be a lot
of pent up demand.

The NEWER Almanac came out in Spring 2003 and is one book for all of Baja, and the maps are in full color for elevation and the sea... nice! Was
$24.95

I saw some proof pages of the new one, pages of the San Felipe area and It looked great. Was not able to check road alignment etc but it's looking
good. Heard that outside of orders from stores etc, he had over 900 direct orders backlogged.

Cheaper in the US
There's a used one on Amazon.com for $5, I guess they get a little more for 'em in Canada!

Steve recently saw the Almanacs that include both states for sale in La Paz at Libreria Ramirez [on Cinco de Mayo acorss from the plaza]. Cost around
200 pesos.

You would think with all the people that want one, they would re-print the old copy and re-write it as they sell, then sell new ones to everyone,
double their money, but what do I know?
