Sounds like fun to me! We're trying for a month-long Baja trip in July-ish...might be able to do it then if the hike isn't too arduous (my wife will
be with me)

Mission Fact Sheet (Part 1, Jesuit Missions)
The Baja Missions web pages at VivaBaja.com are going to be totally revised with a new look... I am using my time while not working irrigation jobs to
fine tune the dates and facts on the missions in Baja...
Here is what I have done today... the Jesuit Order's seventeen missions in 'Antigua California'.
(Information from books by Crosby, Vernon, Robertson, Engelhardt, and Gerhard)
Baja California Spanish Mission Fact Sheet
Seventeen Jesuit founded missions 1697-1768
1 Nuestra Señora de Loreto Conchó 1697-1829
2) San Francisco Javier de Biaundó 1699-1817
(Moved 5 miles south in 1710)
3) San Juan Bautista de Ligüí/ Malibat 1705-1721
(Endowment used to found Los Dolores, in 1721)
4) Santa Rosalía de Mulegé 1705-1828
5) San José de Comondú 1708-1827
(Moved to visita site ‘San Ignacio’, in 1736)
6) La Purísima Concepción de Cadegomó 1720-1822
(Moved ~1735)
7) Nuestra Señora del Pilar de la Paz Airapí 1720-1748
(Moved to Santa Rosa de las Palmas and replaced that mission in 1748)
8) Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe de Huasinapí 1720-1795
9) Nuestra Señora de los Dolores Apaté 1721-1741 & 1741-1768, at La Pasión
(Moved to visita site La Pasión, at Chillá, renamed Los Dolores Chillá 1741- 1768. Often known as ‘Dolores del Sur’ to separate it from the proposed
mission in the north ‘Dolores del Norte’)
10) Santiago el Apóstol Aiñiní 1724-1795 (An early site that failed was at Real de Santa Ana, started in 1722. The 1724 Santiago mission site, at
Rancho La Misión, was moved after approx. ten years to the location of the modern town church. Some historians report a third move in 1790, to
Caduaño.)
11) Nuestro Señor San Ignacio Kadakaamán 1728-1840
12) San José del Cabo Añuití 1730-1840
(Soon moved 5 miles inland from near the sea. Moved back, close to sea in 1735. One final move about one mile inland, in 1753)
13) Missions at Todos Santos 1733 to 1840:
Santa Rosa de las Palmas 1733-1748. (Previously a visita of the La Paz mission named Todos Santos). The La Paz mission moved here and Santa Rosa was
renamed Nuestra Señora del Pilar (de la Paz) 1748-1840. (Moved ~1825 approx. one mile south)
14) San Luis Gonzaga Chiriyaqui 1737-1768
15) Santa Gertrudis de Cadacamán 1751-1822 Originally designated as ‘Dolores del Norte’ on Jesuit records and maps, name changed by request of the
benefactor.
16) San Francisco de Borja Adac 1762-1818
17) Calamajué 1766-1767 & 1767-1769, at Santa María
(Moved to Cabujakaamung and renamed Santa María de los Angeles 1767-1769)

From 1697 to 1768 (The Jesuit Period) only two missions were 'terminated' under their control:
San Juan Bautista de Ligüí/Malibat in 1721 (the mission endowment was used to establish Los Dolores and the Ligüí mission Indians were moved there.
Santa Rosa de las Palmas in 1748. Misión Nuestra Señora del Pilar de la Paz Airapí was moved from La Paz Bay south to Todos Santos and 'replaced' the
mission of Santa Rosa de las Palmas, that was at Todos Santos since 1733.
The Jesuits were expelled from California in February of 1768... later that year the Spanish King's Inspector General, Don José de Gálvez made harsh
orders that resulted in the deaths of many natives as he ordered the closing of Los Dolores and San Luis Gonzaga and their Indians were made to
relocate far from their lands to Todos Santos.
