El Huerfanito


Well ...we got to the El Huerfanito ramp the other day. Turns out that this is a private camp area. I found a care taker on the premises, ask if we could make camp for a few days....."for a six pack of Corona." We gave him a 20 bill. He's an American that is very nice, seems to be there to get away from society.

Answering my own question from another post..: what does the road look like leading to this ramp"? Firm! A little sand for a 20 feet....then the concrete...then to the sea's cobblestone. Someone had spent a lot of time clearing and leveling that cobblestone! Even at the very lowest tide...one can launch with ease.

Second dirt road south of Black Mountain leads you straight to the El Huerfanito ramp.

Fish Report? Ha! The winds blew very hard for three days.

No! Thats what so special about it....we put in our boat a few minutes after that pic was taken. The rock clearance continues past the low tide mark.....somehow they did that! Amazing ramp.
