G'morning Trucknbutch: An up date till I can post another. I was sending up a team to Tayopa this Thursday to start some work, when I received these em's from an associate.

no, porque no se si es verdad lo que me dijeron. Si es cierto, no los van a dejar pasar y espero que ahi termine la cosa. El debe saber como está la situación por allá. Recuerda que el viejito que vino con ellos a Obregón dijo que ellos estaban muy bien con la gente del Chapo y que sus hijos andaban ahí. Que a unos kilómetros estqban los Zetas, pero que no había problemas con su seguridad. Espero que el pleito no haya sido con la gente del Chapo y la busqueda pueda realizarse. Conclusión: Las cosas por allá no están fáciles. Las barras están bien protegidas por los espíritus de los 180 indigenas muertos y toda esa gente que quiere controlar el tráfico.

Por un lado que bueno, por el otro, me dijeron que está muy caliente por allá. que hace poco los habitantes de la sierra oscura mataron a varios forasteros que querían sacarlos de su pueblo y que ahora cuidan la entrada de la gente en el puerto bonito.

Estoy mandando un grupo a Tayopa para comenzar el trabajo Juevas.

They say that they have killed some people up there and that the narcos control the access, on one side are the Zetas, on the other the Sinaloa group. Tayopa is more or less in middle sigh.
The action sorta reminds me of the time my partner and I were backpacking down the west coast of Mexico in the 50's. There were 'no' roads then what-so-ever, then just trails.
We hadn't seen any sign of people for three days except for one spot where a set of bare feet came out of the jungle to the beach and a hole in the sand, with broken Turtle eggs shells scattered around.
We made camp in a wide dry arroyo for protection from the early morning breeze which to us was cold, since we were now acclimated, but had only one blanket apiece..
After dinner as it grew dark we just watched the play of phosphorescence in the multiple lines of the waves, It was beautiful, similar to sheet lightning, but in continuous multiple layers. You could actually walk by the light from the waves with no moon light.
We were quietly enjoying the view when I heard my partner hiss. I looked up and saw two figures, bent over, as if hiding, running towards our camp
We both had trained extensively with our pistols for over a year, before starting out, so we were confident of our ability, so we withheld our fire until the last moment. Just as they reached the 'no' pass line they slowed down and stood erect.
They were two, slightly drunk, Indians that had their arms full of tortillas, fresh corn tamales,and misc fruit which they were bringing to us from a party further up the beach - no, we had no idea they were there .
When I explained to them how they almost joined their ancestors, they sobered up and apologized, they had broken the unwritten code of the bush / jungle of announcing your approaching to a camp by singing or whistling.
In any event, we found just how generous the Indians in the bush or jungle are, Thy simply knew that we were there and brought their arms full of goodies for 3 kilometers to share with us. We spent the next three days enjoying each others company hunting and fishing while they added some survival data to ours. Then they packed up and returned to the bush.
Before they left, I gave each woman a large needle and 20 meters of strong thread, while the men received 10 hi speed .22 cartridges each, the universal exchange in the Jungle at that time. Money was worthless. One woman almost cried over her needle, she had been using a cactus thorn with the fibrous thread still attached. I think that every metal pot, cup or utensil was individually bit or thumped, they had never seen metal pots, plates, or cups before.
Life can be interesting and fun.
p.s. there was absolutley no man made junk on the beach, just clean sparkling sand day after day.
Good to hear from you again, I would offer you coffee, but can't seem to locate it.
I took the road less traveled------------------- and now I'm lost

Sigh, I forgot to post a few pictures. Top left Dove and Chachalaca, our main stay for food. Top right an iguana, excellent eating. Middle left my partner over acting on the third day without water. Right, our lil grass shack on the coast of Michoacan. Bottom left me gathering Oysters from mangrove roots. with my ever present Machete, it is still here at the other side of my desk. Bottom right. My partner on the main trail down the west coast, now a hi speed 4 lane hiway, and many of our isolated camp spots are now towns, sigh.

Don Jose i agree should you publish a book(s) it would be well recieved. I do not know cost/sales required to break even but if a guy bumped into some ahhhh disposable income,sure would be nice to see you on record way down the road . Thanks for your time and travel safe.

truckinbutch thanks for the hospitality and warning about Poorhunter . Reminds me of one of the guys at fish camp coming in minus his sleeves and lower 3 inches of his shirt. Just not too picky! While its said when travelling drink the local wine and i have had the pleasure(?)of sock coffee, if we cross trails i will just have to beat him to brewing. Then we can sift the grounds through our teeth. ;. MIKEL, following tales here knocking a little macho off me. Long hard trails and more than a months grub stake in finds about out of my league, not that i would pass up finding more than i could carry! Its a delight to read accounts where you can see shining eyes looking ahead. Leaves me like some youngster at fire listening till the hivernano shakes the dregs out of his cup ,turns in and leaves me looking forward to next chapter. Now i wait.. shhh listen.
