Interesting, David. I had wondered what had happened with Taninul. Not sure I know much more, now, though. El Abra and La Ventana! And More. Looks as if tourism continues. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tGuJblhxEQ&feature=related Stayed in the hotel a few times in the late 60s and early 70s, including one time with Ron Ralph when it was paid for by Time-Life. I did not see our names, however, in their Guest Book on You-Boob. Time-Life Books, The American Wilderness series, “The Sierra Madre”, Donald Dale Jackson - refers to Me, Ron, Fieselers and others from UT - we had blown the author's mind at BustaMonkey then took him to Bird Pit to watch the local kid whack way collecting flying protein. And then there was the helicopter pilot, his whore, and the jail-break. Although it involved Taninul, that's another story. Ah ----- Nostalgia Thanks, David. DirtDoc
