Some time ago we setup for our annual trip up the Tarahumaran sierras in the Copper Canyon area, but this time somebody decided to do an open invitation to the nearby 4x4 clubs, little did we knew that we`ll end with a nice and long line of more than 60 cars....
Our trip consisted this year of a long drive starting in Navojoa then to Alamos, across the Chinipas river, up to Temoris, cross the nice towns of Cuiteco and Divisadero, Then Creel, across the sierra to the nice Basaseachi Falls, back to Yecora and from there by road to our hometowns, all and all a thousand miles of mostly rugged roads and nice postcard worthy vistas.
The get together at Navojoa, after a nice Cochito a la cubana (Cuban style Pork barbecue) and plenty of beer. As a good Mexican i am a sucker for stickers ...
At 6.30 am we headed out of town on our way to Alamos.
Alamos, a good old fashion colonial tourist trap ... (But with some good restaurants)
Up the sierras on our way to destiny (The Chinipas River crossing)
After several hours, getting closer to the River, down below.
With the help of our two bucks river guide we mostly make it across (Did i tell you that out of 60 cars only 5 had trouble, and of those, 4 where brand new JKs), so much for new tech.
