Mike will be taking the foothills route via El Patrocinio and San Jose de Gracia (I believe).

Mike plans to go around Laguna San Ignacio, then take the foothills route from there (not the salt flats) to San Juanico, then continue on to La
Purisima, then south along the Pacific Coast all the way to Los Cabos. He originally intended to cross the peninsula back over to the SOC at La
Purisima, but has decided to bypass the mountain crossing there and simply continue more directly to the south towards his final destination of the
trip: Los Cabos.

Thanks BajaBlanca
Your photos were great. First time I really seen this guy up close, and his donkey.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I think Doug covered your question... and to add that after resting in San Ignacio, he is not taking the road all the way to Laguna San Ignacio, but
the higher route past the two towns (that are on the AAA map I posted) of El Patrocinio and San Jose de Gracia... most likely.
South of San Jose de Gracia, that high road joins the central/ graded road from El Cuarenta and then south a bit the beach or salt flat road joins in,
5 miles from La Ballena.

All Mike needs is a gold pan and he can "head for them thar hills"!!!
Teasing you Mike, but you look to be a natural prospector out there and maybe "born too late" (me too)!!

those dotted lines are no joke... throw in a random hurricane or two every year and it only gets better, for a mule.

If he were to follow the SCORE markers from the main road to El Patrocino and beyond he'd come into El Cuarenta from the back side. Not as easy a walk
as the main road however.
