Journey Two: Follow us on our trek across 70 miles of unimproved dirt tracks driving from the mission at Satevo across the Barranca (canyon) and Rio de Urique to Tubares. From Tubares we gained elevation back to the pines of Mesa de Arturo stopping in the colonial mining town of Cerocahui.

The adventure ended at the famous colonial city of El Fuerte.
