Chapala side, no. A few people and a little work being done on the north end. I forgot to mention that my passenger from Mexicali said it was
**supposed** to be finished this year.

They are not back to work then. in December there were well over 300 people working and then in Jan just a few on the east side. Wonder if there is
a "new" contract problem.
Paper was advertising it would be finished this year.

Funny how smooth it seems at fast speed, but rough when seen at normal driving speed, as in the second video.

That truck that passed him was hauling! I could never do that with my full size Dodge and Callen. Just seemed to beat the crap out of things. I go
slow and air down. I love that road. One of the last dirt roads left. Enjoy it. I'll be driving it this Saturday, the 30th. I'll report when I
get back.

Drove it on the 19th of January
Chapala to Coco's - first few miles is potholed and rutted though better than in previous years. As you start to climb you will be on a portion used
by construction equipment so the middle 3 or 4 miles is pretty decent, actually smooth for some distance. The last 4 or so miles into Coco's is a
little better than in the past. All in all - improving.
Coco's to ten miles east (to the pavement) - Again you'll be on a pretty smooth construction related road bed for 3 or 4 miles of the ten. The
remaining 6 or 7 miles is better than it used to be.
