We're home now. Quiet drive, no checkpoints and I pulled the rv in the driveway on the first try. Had a great evening in Leon Guzman. The temps dropped to 7C and again Mr. Heater did a good job of keeping us nice and warm. We watched another good movie, We Own The Night with Joaquin Phoenix. Juan made a great dinner of pasta and broccoli.
I said I would post about the Espinazo del Diablo. No reason not to take it and I am not sure why people have always complained about it. Buses, semis, and our 24 foot travel trailer did just fine. There is no peligro (danger), no exaggerated hairpin curves. It is a windy road and goes up and down but beats the boringly rough toll road from Durango to Mazatlan. Pictures say a thousand words so I won't say any more.

Glad you are home. Nice to have a real post about the Espinazo Del Diablo.
ReplyDeleteNice ride!
ReplyDeleteHey, we recognize all of those photos!
ReplyDeleteAccording to Kevin (or was it you?) there is less commercial traffic on the old road so this makes things easier. Also the route W-E is uphill, easier on the brakes than the E-W downhill run.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home mi amigos! Take it easy with the unloading and poco a poco. Thanks for sharing the adventure and the photos.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! Hope the trailer is okay after a serious inspection.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a gorgeous drive to me.... (but then, I'm not the one doing the driving ;-)
ReplyDeleteIs that outside temp accurate? Yikes, it was like that here the other day, and we're in "El Grande Norte Blanco". I guess that's the "Great White North", my Spanish ain't up to snuff.
