Just got back from my Baja 2006 Adventure with the TurtleExpedition Unlimited. What a GREAT Adventure! The FWC are made for an adventure like this. Here is a couple of photos of what you all missed...captainkettel...

Oh, there will be more! Just waiting for my personal disc from my brother. I also will have the "Trip" disc coming too. Drove probably around 400 miles off road. Followed the SCORE Baja 1000 course that ran in mid-november for about 250 dusty miles. Snagged some marker arrow flags and even a 320 mile marker from the course. Pictures should be good. :D
I will share...captainkettel...

Here is the start of a few more photos. First is going through the sand dunes going to the "Clam Camp" just outside of San Quintin. About a 7 mile trip down to the Pacific Ocean.
Second photo is the group camped at the "Turtle Camp" just outside of Catavina. Lots of BIG rocks!
Last is going through a series of deserts for 50 mile going out to the "Fish Camp" where we camped and got a load of fresh Lobsters. The road was part of the SCORE Baja 1000 used a couple of years ago.
I will post more as I re-size them to fit on this site...captainkettel...

Here are a few more pictures to tempt you guys to travel down the Baja. This is where we camped on the Pacific at the Fish Camp waiting for the next days lobster catch.
On the way back to Hwy 1 through one of the many desert ranges.
A whole forest of these tall cactus's.
Heading down the river bed on the way to the Calamajue Mission site.
Just one of the many colorful cactus along the way.
Sort of makes you want to pack up and "Hit the Road" doesn't it!...captainkettel...

This is a photo of The Sea of Cortz, just outside of Gonzaga Bay on the way to San Felipe.
On the CODE Rally race course heading toward Guadalupe Hotsprings. Lots of whoop-de-do's!
Nice view of the valley looking down from Guadalupe Hotsprings.
Mountains off to the north.
Yes, even a 4X4 Sprtsmobile will do a little "rock crawling".:D
