More pushing North
The push North continues, making the 200+ mile drive from Mulege to Guerrero Negro, where we over-nighted after a full day or driving. This gave Kerri the perfect excuse to revisit her favorite fish taco joint in Baja, so it was done.
The following morning began an all day drive to break through the “fuel gap” (200 miles of no fuel stations) between Guerrero Negro and San Quentin. About mid way up Mex1 we passed the dirt road that we used to merge to Mex1 on the way down Baja, after leaving San Felipe, 2 full months ago. It was at that point that we were traveling uncharted territory (for us) on our way towards Ensenada.
We passed through a National Preserve with some of the most scenic views along the way. Unfortunately, we had to keep moving forward until we exited the fuel gap and arrived at our predetermined camp for the night just south of San Quintin, Baja. Here we stayed at Playa Pebellon where the dogs got to enjoy the beach and I even struck it rich (in sand dollars)
A final long day of driving closed out a 4-day, 900+ mile drive up Mex1 highway. We now relax at our week-long destination in the greater Ensenada area which I will write up in another post…
There’s a Pemex station in El Rosario, so the “fuel gap” heading north is a little shorter.
And it is no problem for BigBlue, who can go more than 400 miles on the 35 gallon tank anyway.
