i was fairly confident due to the fact that i don't partake of the yerba buena!:saint: and this was at the ensenada check with the chica standing right next to me. i asked her how she was and she was COLD! i don't mean temperature wise. maybe the guy was trying to be extra thorough in front of the boss?

Well I can't speak about the Pacific as much as I can the Cortez side.

I live in San Felipe part time and I will be down during the time you mentioned.

One option
Come down to Ensenada and take Hwy 3 to Hwy 5 and visit San Felipe. There is a GREAT camp ground, Pete's Camp, where you will be very safe. It has showers, palapas on the beach and a great resturant and bar. We live a few miles from Pete's and it is where we usually go to grab dinner and a drink when I am to tired to cook.

U2U me if you have any other questions.

Good info indeed.

The old man passed away a year or two ago, yes?

Agree with Curt. Let's see some (non-disclosing) images of the score in question. Empty right points + halibut will make my day pass more quickly.

Drive during daylight hours - which means thinking ahead (and every stretch is longer than you think).
Excellent advice! I would add one more - the vehicle driver must keep his/her eyes on the road at all times - no sightseeing - a swerve left or right a foot or two can bring major disaster and end your trip (and life)! Almost no margin for error on Hwy 1. Be safe - not sorry.
