OK, I watched the video/documentary. It's a modern high(er)-budget road trip / expedition using the backdrop of the century-old expedition.

I think the producers should get it to Amazon Video documentaries. I think it fits along the lines of Expedition Overland's trip to Alaska, South America, etc.

It was a good watch.

Thank you for making it available. I watched it on my 27" monitor. I'd watch it again in the big screen when it's available in Amazon Prime, hopefully with 5.1 or Atmos soundtrack :-)

P.S. I felt great to see you David in your cameo role!!!

Thanks Art... I love sharing my passion for the history of the peninsula. Since they had used my book for historic data while filming (they got a copy from Pancho at San Rafael), they thought it would be neat to have me speak about the missions and El Camino Real... a small part was included in the film.

We watched the documentary last night, what a fun watch! So much history and how incredible those adventurers were. I cannot fathom how they pulled it off and the scary part was when they needed the supplies from a boat that was late.

Thanks for sharing.

My review of all three shows; I enjoyed the science aspect of the first show (despite the man made global warming crap), the other two were less science and more adventure, which, at least for most of us here, we've got first hand knowledge of.

So for me, more science. My travels to Baja both exploring and diving started in '87 with 4 cars full of marine and terrestrial biologists. All the subsequent trips were with my marine biologist friends. Very informative. I wish I had recorded all the info they provided.

Tim, I am guessing you watched the previews posted 5 years ago (2016)? The entire movie is now available to watch, for free... See the reply on 10-13-21 by Subjectruin.

Yep, you're right, I watched the previews, I didn't realize the thread was so old. The whole show is all cued up now, I'll get to it!
