A beautiful ending to a great trip. We ended in Bahia Kino on the West side of the Gulf of Baja (Sea of Cortez). It is a beautiful beach front city without having been ruined by the "modern" things like fast food restaurants, etc. We watched our final sunset over the water and it was very peaceful. It took 3 days drive to get back to Utah. The historic residents of the Bahia de Kino region were probably first documented in notes taken by Padre Eusebio Kino during his travels to the region in 1685 when he visited the bay and named it Bahia San Juan Bautista (Doode 1999). The local indigenous population was widely dispersed in small hunter-gatherer groups ranging from the Guaymas area as far north as present day Puerto Libertad. They called themselves Comcaac (Seri). The harsh environment of the coastal region dictated that the Comcaac live with a high degree of flexibility and resourcefulness, a characteristic that allowed them to remain free of contact with, and exploitation by, the Spaniards.
