I am guessing "the pole line road" near or on "Basketball Hill". Lordy, what a HORRIBLE road!!!!

wrong direction amigo, and wrong sierra... much closer to Agua Caliente (the one facing Valle Chico).

Hmmmmmmmm, I can't think of another canyon that has a good supply of water that I have actually seen----must be one I have not gone way up
in------there are several with water between Agua Caliente and Gonzaga, I understand.
I see a small blue palm, tho not really a "clue" since most have them.
I give up. (I could guess, but that is no fair)

LOL! Good guesses amigos...
Game 6 answer: EL PARRAL (between Agua Caliente and Matomi). This scene is right behind the abandoned ranch house... See my photos (I also met Baja
Lou and Taco de Baja, Mexitron and Pappy on this April, 2004 trip): http://vivabaja.com/404

I am actually on a road that was once paved... an elevated causeway through the lagoon of Guerrero Negro (Black Warrior) to the abandoned salt loading
dock. But, you were close enough Brooks!

4 times I have tried with friends to access "Parral canyon" and that rancho, only to find that the fence and gate is locked like a safe at the big
gate where the cross-over road from Barrendo hits Parral wash. Very depressing!!! We tried, but could NOT find any way around it-----big rocks in
the way.

We were very lucky, as was Baja Lou's group from El Dorado as the gate was open!
There was a new fence beyond, at the end of the runway, cutting off the road by a corral, but by driving through the corral we got past that second
(gate-less) fence... then came to the washed out road a short distance further.
We all camped at the corral and hiked to the old ranch house the next day. Baja Lou was so full of energy, he hiked way past the ranch house seeking
the source of the stream in a grove of blue palms. Hiking back, we found a red diamond back and another found a big horn rack (photos in my web page)!
Baja is amazing! Oh, there was a lot of hacked-up drip irrigation tube, indicating a 'cilantro' farm operation some time in the past (destroyed by the
army)... as I had found in Agua Caliente Canyon, in 2000.
