Gonzaga question
Haven't done it yet but may this year, Can anyone say if there is space for a shorter (20') travel trailer to park and spend a few days at Gonzaga?
Don;t need hookups. We can dry camp for 5 or 6 days. Haven't been there in years.

Coco doesn't want it and Mama Espinoza didn't like it either... so I am basing this on the local Mexican residents along the highway... those who
would benefit from increased business, but fear the horrors a highway brings...

Not familiar with beluga's just Papa's and Alfie's
Just sayin- for decades they couldn't make any money now with asphalt they can- wouldn't you? Still a good deal.
How well off was Papa when he passed away? It was a joy to have dinner with him way back when.

The beach launch into the back bay is hard pack... just like the runway (well, it is next to the runway)... not soft or gooey.

There is a charge for this ramp. Tow vehicle is very safe to leave behind as you go out with your craft.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
