At least Mexican liability insurance (recommend BajaBound). In theory an FMM (tourist card). It's free for 7 days I believe. We'd have to have it stamped in Tecate to be valid. FMM -

Depending on work, I was thinking the last weekend in October or early November. Any black out dates that time frame for you? -
Ha! I found a crazy beater car for you. https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/cto/d/carlsbad-1997-mazda-miata-na-mx-project/7784243232.html

According to wunderground history for Laguna Salada (close enough) weather station the low for October 31- November 5 was 52 F. Remember though after a few beers and an hour in the hot tubs you stay warm. If not jump back into the tub. 😜 -
Not to hijack your thread @padu. I've been using Onx hunting app on my android for several years. Super easy and very detailed. They just released an Onx offroad app. It's not free except for the trail version. Might be something to use to create your roll chart. ONX offroad

They have pallets covered with plywood to sleep on. I just bring a light sleeping bag myself. Hopefully they didn't change that setup since I was there last. -

@CJ da Viking I'm thinking that we should for sure wait until Fall to let the desert cool down a bit. My idea is either late October or early/mid November. Not sure yet, but more than likely I'll truck my bike down to Potrero County park (It was $15 a day parking back in 2009). Then ride into Baja. We can all meet at the Tecate US side gas station. We can do either a early Saturday morning start, or a mid-day Friday start. Play it by ear for now. I'd plan on returning Sunday around noon or so. Here is the link to their reservation page. Once we decide on the weekend we should all reserve a tub/sleeping area. Reservations -
@Zubb asked for the elk. I thought it was a shoulder roast but on further inspection it's back strap (never tried smoking elk yet). I drew any bull elk tags for this October so may get lucky and have some more then.

RIght, not technical to the hot springs. There is a trail up Canon Tajo just south of Guadalupe with some granite steps and through a cholla forest. I did it on my old TT600 without any issues. Also for those with some fuel range you can continue south and connect to hwy 3 hang a right back to Ensenada or hang a left to San Felipe. There are some deep sand sections this way and rocky patches. -

I'm thinking of an easy ride for a weekend to get some newer (John DR650) into Baja travel. I started going to Guadalupe Canyon when the old man was still running it 1987. His two sons have split it in two separate campos now. You get your own hot tub, picnic table, and a sleeping platform made from plywood on top of pallets. If I remember it was $20 a night in 2009. Food and beer is available at the "cool" pool. Lots of great hiking up the palm canyon and vistas up the wazzoo. Some pavement riding from Tecate down HWY 2 then about 30 miles of washboard rode to the canyon. For those trailering, we'd park at Potrero County park $15 a night with ranger presence. Ride across into Tecate BCN, then down hwy 2 to turn off on Laguna Salada. Should start getting cool enough to want to be in a hot tub around late October. Canyon Guadalupe -
Thanks for hosting Dave! Yes, your shop is my dream shop when I reincarnate next life. Great meeting all you. Most of the SDAR folks I met last time in 2009 have gone, so it's great to see there is still a good turn out. I've got an elk shoulder roast if anyone is interested in picking it up. Makes great crockpot pot roast.

Perfect. I'll try to arrive around 1100. I've not been to an SDAR event in a while. Looking forward to this!

I'm still planning on grinding elk Friday. Was the plan to have a late lunch (2-3ish)?
