2013 Matomi Planning
Will there be any extra room for a Jeep Wrangler and a Toyota 4 Runner? I am planning on making this trip in the new year - Those organizing this
trip, I plan on being there.

How many nights camping... Do you want to have a base camp in the canyon or another along the valley... or on the beach? If there is no closed gate,
the hot springs in Agua Caliente Canyon are very interesting to see, alongside the cool mountain stream.

I have roughly 8 days to work with. The beach would be optimal. I will fly this trip with JustRuns 4WD Club of San Diego along with my Pole Line
Group on Facebook.

Good news!
Your Jeep is 'Shell Island Rated'!
and that earned you one of the last mini 'got baja?' stickers I had!

If the Jeep won't move, I have a 2WD Honda Pilot and a 3" Pro-Comp tow strap! Either way, I'm partaking in the fun!

On Saturday, I sold my hard top, bought the buyers soft top, and paid off my Rubicon. Now, I'm ready to start taking the Jeep out more to have some
fun!

Last word was that the ranchers put a fence across the entrance road to BERRENDO... maybe flash floods will have taken it out, or the army (if there
was any 'cilantro' being grown)!

I found a lot more than one bag... there were several, all brought in by burro or mule. Then the drip irrigation as well as two workers!

How about a Drip Irrigation General Store in the middle of the desert near the Rio Fuerte in Sinaloa? What you guys are talking about is 'little
stuff'.
