WHERE? Missing rancheros????????
Someone posted that there may be people missing among the ranchero families...any ideas on which mtn range or drainages??????
Does anyone know if the 2 meters are working in the San Franciscos??? I am very concerned about many many friends in the San Franciscos, Sierra
Guadalupes and in the San Juans....hoping some body with a 2 mtr radio in San Ignacio or Mulege might have some facts.

I have been in contact with George in San Ignacio. Lugna San Ignacio had some glass damage and some roof but in all they came through well. Santa
Martha the word from the school is that they got hit very hard in that area but nothing about deaths. George is on Skype if you need to talk to him.

There are numerous ranchos and little settlements in the back country of Baja. While ATVing in the backcountry I was amazed at the number of people
who live back there raising goats or ranching. Some have communication only by radio-telephone and several have a buyer from Mulege who comes in
weekly to buy their cheeses which are mostly sold on the mainland due to their high quality. A lot of these ranchos settle near water courses so of
course when the water flash floods like it did with this storm, oftentimes you will find their shelters and belongings washed away. They are very
resilient and hard working and hopefully everyone came through with a minimum of damage, but it will take some time before any of the roads get
re-opened for vehicle travel.

Teddi,
I hope you find a connection soon. I can't imagine the worry you must have for all the fine people you've connected with in the outback.
Thank you Pescador for your post. I feel for them as well.

Paulina-are you in Loreto? Do you have access to anyone w a radio?
If Santa Marta and surrounding ranchos were hit hard I'd like to start getting some sort of relief supples together somehow tho' I am in Oregon
presently with my husband who is trying to recover from a catastrophic heart attack and is on a heart pump awaiting a transplant. Possibly I can try
to send some funds south if I can make sure it gets to the right people. Any suggestions....I am so worried.

Just an idea: Dr. Dan Silva goes out to those Rancheros to treat them on many Sundays...his day off. He will probably be trying to reach them somehow.
I'm sure that travel by road would be impossible right now. Maybe he is in radio contact??
His office number is 153-0253.

Dr Silva is in Mulege. the area code there is 615
If you are calling from the U.S.: use 001 first. So, that would be 001-615-153-0253.
If you are calling from within Mexico from a house phone to cell, use 044 first. Cell phone to Cell phone, use 615 first, then 153 and numbers. Cell
phone to house phone, use 153 and number.
I know this is confusing. I sometimes have trouble dialing the right combination of numbers, in the right sequence. I am pulling this information from
our community generated phone book.
If you still have trouble, get operator assistance. Or come back here and tell us and maybe someone else can help with the telephone maze. Let us know
anyway, what Dr. Silva says. FYI he speaks English. Report back to us what you find out, and ultimately what you find out.

Would have to add the country code:
001-52-615-153-0253

No Teddi, I'm in Calif. Hopefully the connection to Dr. Silva that Tonart provided will put you on the right track. It's frustrating to be stuck
stateside, but it sounds like you are very much needed where you are at the moment. Our thoughts will also be with you and your husband.

Oh no! I hope it is a false rumor. That doesn't sound right. Perhaps any further stuff that is not verified should not appear here.

...that pesky little phone #...
I'm pretty sure that when you call Mexico from the US you dial 011, not 001, then 52,the country code, then the rest of the #. Worked for me when I
called Loreto this morning. So to call Dr Silva, if he is still in Mulege dial:
011-52-615-153-0253

Oh,

post it here. I'd love to know that my friends up there are doing OK

IN the Santa Martha area radio contact has been made and they are getting the help they need for now. They said the road was the most important at
this time.

I spoke with Ramon Arce last night, there was much rain in the Sierras homes were slightly damaged and wet. No injuries reported. They did lose some
animals, chivas and burros. It seems that the people in Santa Teresa are O.K. as well. The road was damaged and everyone is working on it. No word on
how long that will take.

Teddi,
So sorry about your husband. Let me know if you arrange to send help to the ranchos.
