Trail Overview

Traveling from Bahia de los Angeles back to the 1 near Benito Juarez. This route follows some old Baja 1000 tracks at points and terrain varies from rough rocky sections to sand. The route passes by Bahia San Rafael near the midpoint with beach access opportunities. No cell service, fuel or resupply opportunities existed throughout the route. Towering cactus and desert plant life throughout with mountain to baron desert views. Many intersections, side trails opportunities to further explore along the route.

Washboard
Very slow going, deep sand, wash boards, and a rough accent over a windy rocky pass for lack of a better word. Nothing was difficult just very slow maybe 20 mph or slower for 80 miles because of the wash boards

This trail is not a 3/10. A large section of this trail is deep sand. No problem for side by sides or trucks/suvs with 4 wheel drive. I did this trail with a fully loaded Yamaha T7 and would rate the trail a 5/10. Be very comfortable with deep sand.
