Go. You won't regret it. We went thru there several years ago right after the area got the first substantial rainfall in a decade. The cardons were
all full of water and starting to bloom. I will see if I can find any photos.

Vida
just spent a few days down there pitting a bike at the 1000. the area is all you would expect baja to be ! San Francisquito is great place, shoulda
fished but no time. Stayed in one of their palapas, and had a couple of great meals. Checked out El Barril,which was also a realy neat place.Everyone
we met up with was great,even the solders whose camp we drove into the first night lost.
I'd like to spend a week in that area sometime.

afraid we were out of cerveza?

El Barril Rockhouse
This one Paulina?
Choral Pepper did a lot of research on it and wrote a chapter about it...
