Wornout's Off-road Trips to San Felipe sites, on Relive. 2020 & 2021
Wornout leads weekly desert trips out from San Felipe and he has returned, posting them on Relive. Relive is an app that shows your trip on a
satellite view map and shows any photos you took along the way, as well as your max speed and highest elevation. Interesting if you are into maps or
Baja exploring.
SCROLL DOWN to see the latest trip...
==================================================================
JUNE 12, 2020:
This one was of today's run from San Felipe to 'Hidden Valley' and back... it is all in less than 2 minutes and with music: https://www.relive.cc/view/v1OwMy1XwEq
Wornout said I could post these here after I asked.

Thanks David,
I do not always open facebook to get Wornout's trip feeds.
Sure is a good app, but I don't like the Relive price.

De nada, Paul!
Somehow, I got onto Wornout's email list, so these weekly trip links come to me automatically with his group emails.
Wornout is sort of continuing the tradition of previous El Dorado Ranch desert explorers like our late friends 'bajalou' and Bruce Barber (who wrote a
super detailed book in 2003 on the San Felipe desert geology, canyons, and a couple other regions, titled "of Sea and Sand".
A bit over a year ago, when there was a hike to Diablo Canyon, his partner (Kat) who decided to wait midway in the hike and not to go up to the
canyon, vanished upon the group's return.
The Relive app is free, but maybe upgrades cost? I loaded it on my phone in 2019 for the Trail of Missions Recon... but I didn't seem to get it fully
and the results left a lot to be desired... LOL
RFClark... check your u2u inbox.

Cool thread. Glad they are getting out and having fun!
Was there ever any closure on the disappearance of Kat?

I do not think there was... vanished without a trace.
I just got an email from Wornout about RFClark's request to contact him:
"No problem, our Friday 'Social Separation' trips are open to everyone. We alway drive more than 6 feet apart. LOL"

Kat
Most of the locals think there was foul play.
No other explanation.
Me - I do not know. I was in the states at the time.

The word 'cava' typically means wine cellar and not a cave (cueva).
