Interesting topic Mark.:coffee: My or rather her top ten reasons: As you know we Canucks have to travel a great distance to get to the deserts, so that eats up quite a bit of vacation time. She only has 3 weeks a year and saves some for an annual mother/daughter trip with her mom and sister...

Hope you and Tom get this in time, there is a art gallery/cantina on the west side of the road as you head north from Cabo San Lucas to Todas Santo. They some some different MX beers there when I was there 2 years ago. Great little spot, good food as well. I camped near there. IIRC, I went...

I have been using Olympus for about 4 decades. Had the 1/2 frame one with the doubler and attachments way back when Kodak had quality 25/64ASA slide film. I used to push this film to increase the saturation and man did it look good. Developers gave me heck for the extra work framing the 72+...

Gran verlo y conversar con usted, así a través de Google video chat de ayer, Tom y Janet. Tener más diversión en Baja California Sur, mantener la práctica española, confía en mí ya que lo necesitará. Al tomar el ferry que le falta Barracas del Cobre, las Cataratas del Basasiachi, muchas ruinas y...

On at least once a week unless travelling. Plus emails sent daily for threads I subscribe to like this one.:costumed-smiley-007 EDIT: not on as much as I used to as this site is getting a bit sketchy and the tone is changing. Email always works and is better than PMs.

Karter? I sent emails to you.:costumed-smiley-007

Tom/Janet, by east side west of JT being different, are you referring to the Dale Mining area, then definitely so! Actually, the largest and most dense Joshua forest in the USA is in the NE corner of Mojave, very much larger and denser than JT. I too loved JT, very much different than DV. Just...

Another item I like about BM, is that the naming of geographical/topographical features. Names are offset somewhat so that they do not overlap each other nor anything else. Colours have been picked to allow for good contrast. Both (BM/DL) seem to have the same roads depicted in the same...

Many thanks deserteagle56 for your efforts/time to scan/photo the two areas. I must admit initially I am in agreement with your comments about both and that BM looks much easier to read. I will take a closer look at both now that I have a copy of each. Thanks again for your...

I have found no other competitors that make similar Atlas/Gazetteer like booklets. The competition isn't really that large nor the market - for those atlas/gazetteer booklets. Even NGS doesn't make a similar booklet by state. Both are good products, simply a personal perspective/preference, I...

Excellent! If I may impose on you, please look at the two volumes side by side over the same area/region and see what the difference is in presentation (colour, line quality, shading, etc.). Perhaps you can scan or photo a page from each over the same area/region and post these up here for...

Nothing chauvinistic about it at all! Definitely a beautiful country and enjoyed my stay there as well although many years ago now. Thanks for sharing!:costumed-smiley-007

I too am getting ready to get a set of quality state road maps and BM/DL seem to be the top contenders. However I did look at Rand McNally and NGS but they seem to be more into folded maps. I tried to find a local store with both DL and BM available and if so, same states, to do an actual...

Photos (inside/outside) would help these sell faster...:costumed-smiley-007

As we spoken before on this topic and in depth, things to consider: Availability - find a tire that is easily replaced in Canada or W. USA say at a big chain store (Les Swabb, OK Tire, Big-O, Wal-Mart, Sams, Costco, etc.) Keeps the price down and if a tire is damaged beyond repair, easily...

Great trip report Mike! thanks for getting this up so quickly when you got home. Enjoy Turkey weekend!:costumed-smiley-007

Went there on my way to Guadalupe, Baja, Sur in 2006 trying to find my way west across penninsula.:costumed-smiley-007

Casa Grande, AZ is nice this time of year, but then so is El Paso, TX - enjoying some great trailing with friends.:costumed-smiley-007

Nice spot for sure Brian.:costumed-smiley-007
