Hi Rudy,

It will depend on economics and vacation schedules... as you don't have a date yet... but if I can go, I will. I was responding to Tripper about having a Toyota for driving in Baja vs. walking the way Wilderone described.

I don't think BajaCat should take his Dodge into Santa Maria unless we hear that the bog is dry or lower than it was last year.

I do want to check out La Bocana archeological site off the road to the coast from north of Cataviņa. Neal Johns says it is worth a look.

Hi D'Rat!

Good to see you online... !!

Here is a photo of Desert Rat with Papa Fernandez in 1994, when D'Rat completed his walk to Gonzaga Bay from San Felipe!

I'm a bit lost


Is this still being considered (below) for January?

........"Does any one have any ideas or suggestions for the route we should hike from Santa Inez to the coast? I think it take us 2 or 3 days to get to the coast again we will have support vehicles since we are a bunch of Old Farts.
Any suggestions are welcome..

Yes it is being considered, Rudy is our leader and coordinator. DK is coordinator for the Diaz grave investigation. I'm just stirring the pot. Both are doable in Jan and Feb or earlier or later. Nov is Baja 1000 and Mar is SF250 race otherwise I don't care.

The cross Baja hike Gonzaga to the Pacific Coast is still on so plan to join us. For now looks like Feb may be the best month.. For all who are interested why don't we start throwing out possible dates and we will select the date that will allow for most participation.

The best chance for more to help/participate might be if done over President's Day weekend...? (at least for us younger/ working folks) ;D
