My next-door neighbor was most likely burning wood in his fire place last night when some unburnt embers must have began to overheat or burn. I can
only speculate, because my neighbor was not in the mood to talk to me about this today when I saw hik. Anyway, the firefighters poured water down his
chimney for about 20 minutes until the fire was out. I eventually spoke with a petite, blonde firefighter, and asked her if they put the fire out,
and she said, "Everythings finished.". I waited until 2:30 am when the last firefighter engine left my street before going back to sleep.
I noticed that 'Dave' doesn't have a spark arrestor on his chimney, now. I hope he doesn't have any more cozy fires as anyone's expense.

Looks worse
Rock stacking will be needed for easier passage.
Small tire rigs still probably will need help. Tell everyone to bring a strap with no hooks.
How many rigs will have winches?

I can't say how many rigs will have a winch. I carry a heavy duty TERAFLEX yank strap in my Jeep. I bought two additional yank straps (with no
hooks) for anyone who will need one on the run. For the vehicles with winches, they will run between the rigs without winches. I will get the word
out on tow straps, because these rocks can cut sidewalls and put a hole in an oil pan.
Final track on Google Earth
Five screen shots for the final PLR track. Many track pieces all merged together from my actual driven .USR files (Lowrance). As you might suspect
there is no way it can be converted to any other format like GPX as the amount of data is only suitable for a Lowrance GPS.
There are many side tracks that I left on the images to allow others to see their relationship to the final track. You can see the leg to La Ventana,
the leg to the race summit, the option when entering Siaz wash, the real route of the pole line up toward its summit (label is Saiz?), the lock gate
track, the leg to Borrego, the turn to Guadalupe. And so on.
This first pic is way too much to be of any use so I will break down into the four enlarged shots
What better way to compliment some killer Pole Line T-shirts? Some hand tied paracord bracelets, key chains, and soft top zipper pulls. Made with US
550 paracord. I'll be bringing a bunch of these down with me next week for the trip.
These items are going to a great cause. Maybe you can sell them when we are at Asadero Morlan in Progreso (West Mexicali) on Day 1 when we stop for
tacos and trail food.
