:light:

Please drop down to Medicine Hat and pick us up after you leave Saskatoon and turn out the lights as you cross the Saskatchewan border.

I know the way to Baja, don't need many rest stops and can make sandwiches . :lol::bounce::lol:




When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

Born in Moose Jaw. Forbears came to settle nearly free land with livestock from Scotland. Great grandpa brought first draft horses to Saskatchewan.

Parents got a chance to move to Alberta in 1967 and have been land-locked ever since!

Vgabndo,
Yep, 25 litres makes the sand whoops between Bahia de los Angeles and Coco's pure hell....but is nice between San Ignacio, El Datil, and San Raymundo to Mulege....

Bajagypsy,
I wish I could....as a fellow Saskatchewaner (born in Theodore....which is between Sheho and Insinger:lol:), I have a hardy soul, a vision off into the horizon, and a penchant for dreaming.....

We seem to find another part of our soul in Baja....you folks make the trek in the winter months as I do, despite thinking of it daily.

Spring is around the corner...and then the mosquitos....and then the harvest moon and great sunsets as the fields are worked (or is that the poisonous air from Alberta?)....and then prep for another trip to Baja....

I must regretfully postpone the ride south until this next winter... :no::(

Nomads,
Wow !!! It appears as if some of us would rather be someplace else....like back in Baja :light:

If we hijacked a BC Ferry, we couldn't pick up Bajagypsy and family...but some form of caravan might be possible to get out of the cold and wet...





Mike certainly could bring all of us down in one trip....regardless of fuel costs.....although he knows where to drop us off...




We could all enjoy some roasted pig and share travel tales...




We could stop for a ....rest....whenever we needed to...




And make some new friends along the way....














Don't believe everything you think....

sorry.........i picked up a bit of their vernacular whilst gabbing amongst the local color in the bars - something the Wisconsinites do quite well, you
know, eh? ya, you betcha.

i cannot imagine why anyone lives in the great north east or north mid west. my partner likes to sno mobile, he put 1700 miles on his 900 CC Polaris just this season.
