Guerrero Negro to San Quintin
What a great cool temperature today for riding, but a little windy. We were riding at high altitude again so up and down and around mountains etc, then through the Valle de los Cirios with the Cardon Cactus and Cirios Trees. Most of the day was spent riding through desert like landscape.
Berry growing is a major industry in the Baja. Strawberry, raspberry, blackberry and blueberry, I’m guessing that the majority gets exported as we didn’t see too many in our travels. A little here and there in the fruit platters at breakfast. Watermelon and rockmelon were common place. Many of the fields were protected by the elements like in the picture at the end of this post. Tomatoes are grown in abundance also, with San Quintin being one of the world’s largest tomato growing regions in the world.
