Baja Challenge

I have gotten many mails asking for the track of our last off-road expedition.
http://carlosnpainter.smugmug.com/Events/Uno-Baja-Extreme-Adventure...

Sorry to disappoint you guys - I will not publish the route. Part of any adventure is the search and locating of hidden treasures. If you set your mind to it you will find "This Old Road".
BCS, 55 miles east-west, what more would you need. I'll offer a bottle of the best Don Julio for the first one who brings proof (GPS track) of traveling the entire route (Pacific to Sea of Cortez).

If you only travel to take the same pictures you have already seen in a travel guide, you are missing most of the fun away from home.

Be your own Columbus!

RE: Baja Challenge

Without seeing your GPS track as proof for this trip, how can we be sure that you actually did do it?

RE: Baja Challenge

good point Dutch. You'll have to take the word from 4 honorable members of this forum - and they would not even lie to their wives.

It is true!

Harald even cut us a bit slack.......hard knuckle-busting work each day, but we didn't need to wear the shackles & chains and the best thing was -

we didn't need to sing either

RE: Baja Challenge

Karl,

I did not drive you! You seemed pretty self motivated.
I bet you lost some weight in the process.
