The bridge construction along...

Kent Kroeker posted the following on Race-Dezert.com. It is the best I've read on the entire situation.

Racers and Ranchers co-founders Rudy Iribe and Lance Kane conducted another exploratory and fact-finding visit to the Laguna Hanson area of the Sierra Juarez mountains, a popular off-roading and possibly soon-to-be Score race area. I accompanied Rudy and Lance along with their savvy friend Mapola, who knows every "best of" establishment in Baja. If unsure what Racers and Ranchers is all...
