Sorry chicken soup, your opinion just doesn't fly. I've known Gary for over 20 years and have been to Baja with him many times. He epitomizes the true baja afficionado. If he cares too much for the environment in your mind, then perhaps it is your opinion that is flawed. He loves the people, the culture, and the opportunity Baja gives all of us to escape the rigors of a 9-5 job. Live and let live, enjoy the little time we have to visit, and bring back favorable memories. If anyone is clueless about the environment around him, it seems to be you. Why such negativity towards someone who obviously has only positive things to say about this enchanted pennisula? Everyone has their "secrete spots" that they would like to keep "secrete," opinions about development, and the Mexican Government, but there is nothing wrong in hoping that changes will be positive and doing what you can to achieve that goal.

if this is the gary & DOLORES that i met, they were first class people. very open towards us when we were hiking south towards their camp (gary called to us to come by and have a look at the fotos dolores took of us that morning). after 10-15 minutes of small talk as they broke camp we continued south on our way and waved a final goodbye as the headed home some time later.

granted, it's hard to tell a lot about a person by a 15 minute conversation but i have only good words for these people. they kept to themselves for the most part, but after gary told me "thanks" for the wave of his day we were fast friends. what was i gonna do? drop in on the only other guy in the water, or let him crank that backside bottom turn and TRY to make it around the corner as i hooted my approval!:cool:

plus, i had my pick of the rest of the set. easy choice;D.
