LA LOBERA (KM. 46 1/2), yes... where the power lines go over the highway. There was a small sign, as well.

That would require a skill taught by a good friend but now forgotten. I need re-training on your next visit.

Please note that on hwy 5 at KM 87 and KM 89 the new fence blocks the access road. In fact there is a steel guard rail blocking KM 89. A little ways further down from KM 89 there is an access road where you can then drive along the outside of the fence back to KM 89. Saw this coming back over new years.

KM107 is the access to the wells. The is the remains of a block building there. The access I meant is at KM91 or 92 or near there. There is a graded road there that I think the road builders used for material. I think La Ventana is at KM105

?? KM 107... Down the road from AkBear...? I thought he lived near Los Barriles... Now I am lost! LOL

What highway are you talking about TW, and where did you post a KM 107?

My post was dealing with hwy5 near Laguna Salada south end. The Saldana access roads. I'm not sure what Bajalorena was speaking of, I thought she was speaking of the La Ventana area.
