The picture was shot by one of the crew that was marking the course last week. I assume they found a way around this spot or got something in there to
smooth it out. This is along the coast across from Los Pocitos on hwy 1.
I'm chasing Tunaeater and he gets off the bike near San Felipe but I was thinking of going on to La Paz and spend a few days just site seeing and
exploring.

They also had problems with a rancher not letting them pass over his property I think it was near RM 650 south of San Ignacio. They even offered him
money and he refused it. Maybe he wants more from Sal. There was also an area on the section just before Loreto that was said to be non-passable, Some
problem on a hill. But I understand they found a way around it.

We were at San Francisquito Monday night. Two KTM riders came in from BOLA and expressed their opinion that no 4 wheeled vehicle could make it
through at that time. Just passing on their report. Road out to El Arco was fine.

No I don't have anything about that area. I plan to be down there next weekend to check out the wall just past San Rafael as seen on Google Earth.
Hopefully I can get thru in my Tacoma.

I'd appreciate any info, too, as we plan on heading down to PSR just before Turkey Day.

Chris Wilson said he would be down marking the trail out of LA Bay this week. Three trucks with winches, tow straps and shovels.
