Climbing Up the Widowmaker!


This was the toughest part of the route.
Even with a locked rear differential,
my progress was stopped by a foot tall rock face.
Adding some rocks in front to make a ramp,
and Ross' directions for tire placement,
allowed me to reach the top.

Reached the Top!


It was a bit scary, but having a good Baja amigo along made it happen.
A small parking place is here and the mission is only 1.2 miles away,
if you prefer to walk and not take the challenge.


Ross and Rose on the peninsular divide,
Gonzaga Bay's Punta Final is viewed from here.
This was a great trip... Ross and Rose head home this day.
Jimmy and Linda continue south with Sarah and I.
The second half of our Spring Break in Baja follows...

Our next camp was at Bahia de Los Angeles with Jimmy and Linda. Ross and Rose had to return home after Santa Maria. We stayed at Camp Gecko, next to 4Baja's (Steve's) lot. Short trips to La Gringa, the copper mine, and Las Flores occured the next couple days.
