My Baja Biography
Baja has been in my blood since 1965, when my parents began their travels south in a Jeep Wagoneer. Gonzaga Bay was our first destination. A two week adventure from Tijuana to Cabo San Lucas ocurred in 1966. L.A. Bay was visited in 1967. In addition to those trips, many long weekends were spent south of San Felipe at Nuevo Mazatlan (Agua de Chale). Later on, I often camped at a beach I call 'Shell Island'.
At 15, I authored my first guidebook in 1973. Titled, 'Baja and the Transpeninsular Highway', it was the first guide to the new Baja highway (still under construction) . Trips without parents began when I was 16 in my street legal dune buggy. My next Bajaguidebook was published in the Jan., 1975 special edition of The Baja California Bulletin.
I made numerous trips to Baja for camping, exploring, and to watch the off road races. I was invited to help a pit team at Nuevo Junction for the '78 Baja 500. I joined up with the Vista based team 'Los Campeones', and was a 'pit captain' for several Score races. Class 6 racer, 'Skip' Ylhainen asked me to be his co-driver in the '79 Baja 1000 (Ensenada to La Paz). Even though we broke down early in the race, I had fulfilled a dream, and an experience to be sure!
