Zihuatanejo to Puerto Vallarta

What, exactly, is the “state up north?”

Obviously, the problems in Sinaloa.

To the poster who described the coast road up to Manzanillo as "a little windy".....that's an understatement. We've done it, both ways, a number of times, both since it was paved a couple of years ago, and the pot-holed old road. It's certainly worth it for the scenery along the Michoacan coast, and if Manzanillo is the destination, going any other way from Zihua, except along the coast, is much longer.
