Sure! I presume you meant the camp near Puertecitos? Here is that area ... 'Gull Rock I.' is Isla El Huerfanito and Puertecitos is between Punta San Fermin and Red Bluff.

Sorry I didn't see this request until today! (u2u me if I don't reply to any map request!)

Just think of the amount of work and time it took someone or some people on burrows to compile all the information for this map printing and publication. Can you tell us David who published this map and where you dug it up. It is truly a mindbogeling effort for 1930s. Very impressive. Are copys available? Thanx ++C++

I bought this reprint in San Diego... I think at the Scripps Aquarium giftshop...?

I am always looking in bookstores and places for Baja maps and books... I have been doing that for 40 years!... Just been saving them... and getting duplicates sometimes (I donated several to the 'future' El Rosario Baja Library at Baja Cactus).

Here is the details of this map, which includes most of Sonora, too.

Around Laguna Chapala, 1930




Agua Leon would be an intersting ghost town to find... north of Punta Prieta, and west into the hills. It is written about in the book 'Long Walk to Mulege'.

Because this way, you get to post more off topic conversations questioning my Baja posts! :lol:


I see. Very informative and cordial, as usual.
