A coincidence. bajalorena, my past home has the same kilometer marker, Km 107, in Bahia de Concepcion....south of Mulege, Hwy 1.

Added to the list on Page 1 of this thread!

How about it Nomads... do you have any notes for the Km. marker for a Baja point of interest or turnoff? Post them, and I will edit the growing list at the top of this thread.

I noticed the last KM marker on the north side of the monument at Guerrero Negro is painted on the pavement and is KM126. It's near the gas station.

Also KM194 is the closest marker for the turn off to San Luis Gonzaga. It's just south of the turnoff.

The Km. 194, this is for (Mission) San Luis Gonzaga, south of Ciudad Constitucion, BCS... correct?

Always confusing when we are more familiar with Bahia San Luis Gonzaga, BCN.

TW and others have contributed greatly... all Baja Nomads are 'king' here!

Please share any Km. marker notes to add (restaurants, side roads, something interesting, ...?).

David,

This will be very helpful for my drives going on down the road. May help in stopping to smell the roses, prickly pear flowers, sage...etc.
I am Appreciating your, and everyone else's efforts in getting all this info together in one place. I particularly like the information on what's down the side roads.
You already have any marker information that I had or remembered from my past travels. I will take note and photo's to share on my next trip.

That would be great! Baja Nomad is a place to share Baja (not just take), so any new KM. marker notes will be great and I am glad to add them into the list on the first page of this thread. Thank you.

No need for a list here. My Murdocknav.com GPS background may shows them all.

Not everyone has a Murocknav GPS, but all cars have drivers with eyes to see kilometer markers! I think this list is both helpful and fun. Please add to the list if you have notes for other interesting side roads or points of interest, motels or restaurants along highways in Baja.
