Good for good ol Danny ... publishing his book of cool photos and going on book signing and promotion tours to bring down the Wild Side of Baja. What
a f'ing KOOK!!! He's laughing his way to the bank and destroying some of the most pristine areas in the world. He is enemy #1.

In that pre-Google Earth and social media epoch, The Code was adhered to. It was based on a simple verity: if a locale had been transformational for
you, and you had put the hard yards in to get there and to learn it, to know it, why in god�s name would you broadcast the news, thus ruining the
future experience not only for yourself, but for future adventurers?

Daniel has beautiful photographs and they grace his new book. It is Baja that attracts (or repells) visitors and the roads Mexico builds is how people
can visit. A book does not ruin anyplace, so go easy on the blame. Photo books like his have been published back to the 1960s and you can still go to
your 'secret' surf breaks and not see another surfer, can't you? Don't worry about books. Worry instead about the government road builders... Good
roads bring ALL kinds of people.
