The Cactus Trip Diaries

Today was very much a driving day, covering some 550 km., quite a bit of these on winding roads or through topes filled villages.

Only 53 images taken today, spread over four stops, (S1867 to S1870) record scenery to record that MEX 45 from Durango to Parral leads mainly through boring flat (high plateau) cultivated or unused land. We did see some cacti, but nothing worth reporting here. Details in the field list available on request after I have pieced it together in months to come.

Alain & Cliff will be pleased to know that tonight we are staying again in Hotel Cumbres and that the range of food served in Restaurant Los Pinos has not improved; still no guacamole!

Tomorrow we plan to drive through Copper Canyon to Creel. I should have left last year’s wireless keys on my laptop.
