Our group by the fortified gate.
John and Hersch will do some spot el nearby.
We are going in.
Push or not to push the button?
We need to get over that ridge somehow.
This is a rare Crucifixtion Thorn.
Interesting.
Instead of going over that steep ridge we will try to get over by the border fence.
However, this area is now controlled by DOD.
We should be legal here!?
Now we are going el norte.
Is that Bennie?
It was not. Bennie is on another ridge.
Here we are.
Lunch and group pict.
B M from 1941.
Way down is slippery.
On the road again.
Another sign.
So, when you fall in call 1-877-OLD-MINE.
Over the Hills.
On the way out we were stopped/checked by a Border Patrol stormtrooper.
