Mexus Gold US (MXSG)

[A Dinosaur]

Two of us rented a car (advisable for insurance purposes) and drove from Phoenix. It was about 2 hours to the border and 4 hours to Caborca. We rode with Paul, Cesar or Manny to visit the mine.

Better call first to make sure that Paul will be there to show you around. He spends some of his time in the US - driving back and forth by himself.

Security? I thought the most dangerous part of the trip was the way trucks drive on the Mexican highways. They are wide, two-lanes, with wide, paved shoulders. When one truck wants to pass another, north and southbound vehicles move half-way onto the shoulders and the passing vehicle straddles the (imaginary, in some cases) center line.

It's scary the first time or two, but it does work and you get used to it.
