ROAD REPORT

We just drove it a little over a week ago and the road is great from Mexicali up to a mile or so of Gonzaga Bay and the check point and from there it is all gravel dirt and shale. It took us two (2) hours to drive to highway 1 at Laguna Chapalla. Make sure you have 4 wheel drive and high clearance.
