- AlmotExplorer IIIThere are decent stores at the either end of this 250 miles stretch - both in GN and SQ.
Remember Moses traveling with his tribe 200 something miles from Egypt to Promised land for 40 years? :) It's a 2 weeks distance for not very fit hiker. Alright, that guy had a purpose, to teach them a lesson. - MrWizardModeratorRound Trip ?

Gulf, i.e. SOC side?
Winter (Baja Norte): heavy winds 7-8 days a month, dry, 70s, chilly 50s mornings.
Summer: hot, hot, hot... not this year. Couple hours at 90-95, 70-80 nights. This summer is darn cold. It's getting hotter closer to US border though.
Early fall: rainstorms and bugs, humidity like in some godforsaken Michoacan :) , there is even Chikungunya fewer mosquito in the last few years.
I'm curious: how could one possibly drive 375 miles for shopping in the state that is 100 miles wide from Pacific to Gulf and 250 miles long from Guerrero Negro to San Quintin? - MEXICOWANDERERExplorerYesterday they brought me a Mass Airflow Sensor for a Ford Ranger and hoped I could fix it...it was snapped in two.

With all you do, I think you will get a chuckle out of the goodies. - NinerBikesExplorerRumor has it the Salmon Flys are popping downstream in Ennis. Foam sandwich Pteronarcys slapped down hard against the banks brings the brown meatheads out of their lairs for a steak dinner.
- MEXICOWANDERERExplorerHeh heh heh---
Cutthroat trout. Big ones like....
Hack-Cough-Gag-Wheeze. My setup nabbed a 6 lb 9 oz hen from Round Lake, Alpine County, Calif. Caught and released. We ate red meat cutthroats until we had it coming out of our ears. Big fish are big spawners, the Upper Truckee river.
I am NOT in the middle of nowhere
But if I stand on my tiptoes I can see it from here...

HERE on the Pacific side. I get to play with things that can electrocute me. I gave up and bought into a 300 pesos per month unlimited cellular plan that allows unlimited time. I spend more actual time with the family from here than I do when I live across the arroyo from them. There, I signal the girls with a massive cowbell on the patio.
When Jim's Megawatt gets here then I'll really apply myself. Until then, it's goofing off with Light Emitting Diode Arrays. I burned in the 600 watt array last night. Pointed upward. Reflected off the low clouds. Brought gawking traffic and a few dozen boys. It's way WAY brighter than a thousand watt metal halide lamp. Drive the chips at full ma capacity then keep them cool. - NinerBikesExplorer

Isnt that the place in Agua Dulce ?
That was the MegaWatt importer.
I'm stuck in Yellowstone Nat'l park with all the tourons, blowholes, and beautiful fish, this week. Nothing but splatted bugs all over the front of the vehicle.
Rode my mtn bike,, was breathing through my mouth and got a few stuck between my teeth. Midges. I can spit those out, it's the ones that get you mouth breathing and go down into your lungs that make you gag in a coughing fit. Great way to crash gracefully in a coughing spell. But the fish love 'em! - Kayteg1Explorer IIFrom what I remember from Baja, 2 hr of driving gets you from 57F Ocean to 85F Gulf.
But don't think lot of people can survive Gulf without AC
Tell us more how did you arrange it Mex?
I don't think I would like to spend whole year in Baja, but 6 months stays are on my bucket list. - SCVJeffExplorerIsnt that the place in Agua Dulce ?
