Map – Route 1 – Mexicali East to Cañon Guadalupe

This route will be our first excursion into Baja California with our overland truck camper setup. Rental car trips in Cabo and La Paz don’t count toward the concept of ‘overlanding’.

We see this route as being the initial entry point into venturing off-road, initially to Cañon de Guadalupe 32° 9.2910′ N 115° 47.4090′ W, then skirt the Laguna Salada around the southeast to the Sea of Cortez. We’ll see. This year the mud was impassable.

We figure this ‘easy’ trail will be a good time to become familiar with our recovery gear and processes. From there we’ll see.

Once we have driven this route we’ll follow up with an actual track and update this post. Wish us ‘Air in the tires’ and luck through Mexicali…
