The last Mexico trip had been on the memorable side if slightly traumatic for all parties. We'd hit both Pescadores and Pico Risco over two days and due to a variety of factors ended up with only about 4 hours of sleep for the entire weekend by the time we arrived back in OC at 5 am Monday morning.
But this was going to be different! Since Picacho del Diablo (aka Big Picacho of the Sierra Club Desert Peaks Section) was located a fair way down Baja we were looking at 4 days with two of those taken up just be driving surrounding a two day backpack.
And yes of course any visit into Mexico or even just into the border region has some inherent risk. But never fear! We had a plan B. (For Blondie) (As in needs of the many > survival of the Blondie)
