Once a person rounded the curve, wow, two or three hundred meters then the dirt brecha started. El Rosario really was the "fin de la terraceria". They had a gasolinera particular not PEMEX there. But the gas was dispensed not poured in via a funnel and chamois. The next sometimes-gas was available at Rancho Tres Enriques. Rancho Chapala, then El Arco. The Castro ranch just had two battered drums dropped off, so we lucked out but had to return to El Arco and wait two days for the truck to come. Then San Ignacio, an unexpected wedding, and descent down one hell of a grade to Sta Rosalia. Sounds exotic but I'd have to guess if things had not changed, no highway, about 1/2 of 1 percent of the Nomads that have seen La Paz and the capes would have done so. It was one hell of a ride.

It still seems very strange to me that with all of these problems posted with the Baja Cactus Motel and the Pemex, no responses posted by Antonio. I see that he has not been active on this board since early 2011. Wow...

two years inactive is a long time for a new baby. Maybe he just didn't want to be a NOMAD. or more likely doesn't feel the need to engage complaints on this forum. whatever the reason...as we have now seen, there are a lot of other options.

Yes there are a lot of other options and you just never know what is going on in someones life that could be more important than you. So give the guy a break he may have bigger issues than pumping gas or renting rooms. Just say'n
