Baja Bound




"People come to Baja California for many reasons ... for me its attraction is the sense of freedom it conveys and the spiritual feeling engendered by its majesty and it's vast (if now rapidly) receding emptiness. I keep returning ... because Baja keeps calling me; calling me most loudly in the heart-piercing silence of its lonely shores and cactus-studded mountains. Calling me to stand awed, sometimes overawed, alone and fearful ... to confront it and to confront myself once again."
- Graham Mackintosh -

Pappy Jon will be out of the office until March 13th. :lol:

Sort of. I'm going to places I've been before, but a few I've never camped at. Why, have a few suggestions? I'm staying north of Bahia de los Angeles, maybe go as far as Las Animas.
