A while back I asked about the highway from Salitrera to Altamirano #134 ,I was told not to take that road ,The Friend I hired to go get the new Rig ," said no problem "
Made the trip Tuesday ,could have used a full package of Depends !
Live and learn ,We took a different route coming back ,I will post a trip report ,When I settle my nerves a bit more !

We have done it twice in the past and had wonderful experiences both times. They were both long ago and we were warned by several people that it was a dangerous road. Possibly will do it again one day.

The second time was in a big motor home. Sometimes you wondered which side of the road the car meeting you should pass. ;-)

My experience with that road suggests that it is much more harrowing for the driver than it is for passengers. And I don't want to say "I told you..." but I think I could!
