2024 Trail of Missions show
The show aired on ESPN yesterday and now can be watched on YouTube.
This year, Cameron returned to some of the locations we had scouted out in 2019: Mission Guadalupe (west of Mulegé), San Borjitas painted cave, the
Visita de San Pablo, etc.
For the second year, the vehicles were Can-Am side-by-sides. Sara Price (of Dakar fame) was along with this group.
See the missions of San Ignacio, Guadalupe, Mulegé, San José de Comondú, Loreto, and San Javier. La Purísima mission was mentioned as they passed
El Pilón and a stop at El Horno lime kiln, too.

I guess those guy don't take to the “tread lightly” ethos of responsible offroaders, eh?
Woke!

They do enjoy splashing in the arroyo water when a road crosses one. When I traveled with Cameron's group, the film crew liked the splash scenes.

like all good invaders - you just trample through it
they did not get a single one of the local names right
Baja has no defense - so you exploit it for your own gains
a disgusting show of ignorance

What are they, screenagers?
People that that travel with focus on doing facebook and YouTube vids are twits.
Woke!

I think Cameron intentionally goofs up names in an attempt to keep it secret? In 2019, he spelled San Pablo correctly. I also sent him how to say
guéribo correctly a few weeks ago when he asked me the name of that tree.. oh well, as they say, if you can do it better, do it!
Just enjoy the sites even if the spelling or pronunciation makes you cringe... as it does for me!

Interested in the place.... Not so much the language. That says something.

See when Cameron and I first went there, in 2019 (and it is spelled correctly, lol): https://youtu.be/WmZxWMsjsBU?si=t2EA8rFu7FyTN9W9
At Minute 6:14 we arrive and I describe what it was.
