Valle Chico, west of San Felipe
TO EL MATOMI, SUN. FEB. 18, 2001A group of old and new friends met up at the desert home
of El Camote (Mike), near San Felipe. Mike invited all who wished to make
the journey. David K planned the two days tour, and everyone had a part in
making it a fantastic weekend. The following photos from David's camera
were put online with mucho assistance by Wild Bill...Thank you! Saturday's
photos of the sulfur mine and Shell Island tour are at: http://www.davidksbaja.com/shell
Our objective for Sunday was the oasis like pool and waterfall in Matomi
Canyon. Located at the southern end of Valle Chico, about 40 miles
west-north-west of Puertecitos. A very distant and difficult to reach nook
in Baja's wilderness. |

We returned to El Camote's to discover El Gato Loco and Baja Barb as well as Westy and Baja Beach Barbie have arrived in camp. Sunday morning, Dave McFarland has to head home, we loose one Tacoma from the caravan, but gain a Ford camper truck and a hot VW bug. We are off for Matomi Canyon! |
