Punta Final to Bahia de Los Angeles


Hi everyone,

Here's another Baja paddling video. In this clip Brian and I paddle our sea kayaks from Punta Final to Bahia de los Angeles - a paddle of over 80 miles. Our friend Rick dropped us off at Punta Final in Bahia San Luis Gonzaga and then drove the truck back to Tucson (after leaving my car at Campo Archelon in BLA).

At one point during the paddle Brian and I were pinned down on shore by a heavy north wind for nearly four days (as seen in another shorter Youtube video). Never at a loss to keep ourselves entertained we explored the local desert and beach, finding a whale skeleton and seeing very skinny bobcats and coyotes among other desert offerings ...

Sound wicked Greg!

Reminds me of Marv and Aletha Patchen's adventure... dual canoes with outboards from San Felipe to Mulege back in the 1978...

I awoke today with a need to be by the Sea of Cortez. This is the next best thing!
Excellent video.... thank you, Greg.
