EarthCruiser Adventure Preview: Baja Mexico – San Diego to Cabo

Home to the legendary Baja 1000 rally and a classic winter retreat for surfers, divers, and fishermen, the area has attracted travelers for decades. While the casual tourist may be familiar with the region’s resorts, nightlife, and fine dining, those willing to take the time to explore places off the beaten path will discover some of Mexico’s finest hidden gems. Here you may find towering cactus forests, quiet bays home to gentle whale sharks, prehistoric rock art, and hidden mountain hot springs. By taking the slow approach to travel, one may

Camp Recipe: Golden Tofu

EarthCruiser Service Technician Logan C, a previous sushi chief, shares his mother’s recipe, Golden Tofu. It’s an easy recipe that’s quick to assemble while camping or while cooking on the road.

A Tribute to My Little Girl, Goldy

I was supposed to write a travel story this month, and this is sort of one, but I just need to make a little ode to my Goldy. Goldy was Lance and my ‘compromise’ dog after we got married.

We got Goldy—a small English lab with a big attitude.  She was a fearless little witch who loved the supermarket (especially the
