Janene, no one said Gary told the employees at jardines that he was headed to BOLA. Your making this very difficult in that many will get confused with the facts. I want your feedback but please keep to what has been posted.

Dan I just posted this, perhaps you missed it:

Here is a quote from an earlier Nomad post:


posted on 9-12-2013 at 07:48 AM Reply With Quote Report Post to Administrator


My name is Jenn Patton, I am Dave and Molly's daughter. I am sending you a couple pictures of my Uncle Gary (Patton) and his vehicle that he is driving. He hasn't been heard from since last Wednesday when he arrived at Jardines Hotel in San Quintin.. He is driving a 2002 Toyota 4 Runner, Silver with a heavy duty roof rack.. He mentioned to my dad that he wanted to go see the whale sharks in Bahia de los Angeles.

That would make perfect sense to bring a board to paddle out on and a wetsuit and his camera. This is all speculation Dan.

The very first post was from Baja Blanca that said:

He is not an avid fisherman either...he just loves Baja, the people, the views.....He does not use plastic, he has enough cash to last him awhile.

So a fish camp doesn't seem likely without fishing equipment.

without going back thru it all something is wrong, obviously! that little road he got stuck on is not a road someone would turn down to find a place to camp. he was close to the beach, it was probably noon if he drove from SQ after breakfast when he got to that spot.

I can drive from the border to the beach in that zone in 8 hours.......

Janene, there are waves near fish camps. Just sayin'...

We can all speculate as to what might possibly have happened with Gary. Facts are; he's made no contact with relatives or anyone else, no credit/debit card transactions on his accounts, no anything. My condolences to his family.

If he stopped at the PEMEX in El Rosario Antonio would have it on his security camera video.

Coming in on the San Jose road to surf at Canoas doesn't make too much sense---its backtracking/extra mileage. Perhaps he drove to Canoas on the north road, camped for awhile, then wanted to head south to the Sisters, so he used the connector road the truck was found near. What does that do to the mileage? BTW there is also a coastal connector road from Canoas to Faro San Jose but its a little more treacherous in spots...had he known that he would have taken the inland connector where the truck was found near.

There is another thing that is puzzling to me. I have been stuck more times than I would like to admit. After lowering tire pressure, shoveling away sand (or snow), rocking back and forth etc I always jacked up the car and put something under the tires. Isn't jacking the car up common or it that just a technique that worked for me?

What you posted is below. I think what you meant in your post was that he was going to be back in three days, which he did in fact tell them but he didn't tell the employees at jardines that he was going to BOLA and did not mention taking photos of Whale Sharks….It's all good janene!

He was going to take pictures of whale sharks and be back in three days as he told the hotel,

Since the car was found March 4 go back from there for as long as he has recorded. I don't know how long he keeps the video. I'll ask.

Yes Dan that is what I meant that is why I deleted my response as I was going to clarify it. TW and Woody have great ideas on checking out security videos but I don't think they go back that far. But someone might remember something. Also retracing the drive and in those areas where the car was found might yield other clues if they keep a lookout in all directions while driving slowly.

What do you call someone who assaults a driver and robs him?Ambush can also mean a surprise attack. I am sure Gary presented himself as a friendly guy trying to help someone out and got more than he bargained for. The robber knew that the car was hot and dumped it. Makes more sense than him pulling in miles off the main road only after 2 hours into his trip and no one seeing him.
