645. La Flor del Cabo
A short stroll along a small beach toward a famous little rocky arch in Mexico

N.B. As most letterboxers probably know by now, after planting well over 500 regular boxes, we got tired of leaving plastic containers out in the environment, so for the past few years we sometimes just leave in our wake now small rocks with stamps glued underneath that we call "travelin' lights".

To find this little flower "travelin' light", head south from downtown and the main tender dock of Cabo San Lucas past the Naval Terminal. We had hoped to climb Mt. Solmar and plant this flower atop with a view of Lovers Beach/ Divorce Beach and the rocks marking the tip of Baja California below, but Enrique's gate was locked that day, so we simply followed the fence line to the southern end of Playa Enpacaderos, where the rocks begin and the fence goes up the mountain. From the lowest "No Pase" sign (red letters on white background) with a large multi-cactus behind the fence, scramble up maybe a dozen paces to a 10' tall straight single cactus in front of a rock face. There behind the cactus and in front of the rock face, under a 3" triangular rock rests a small gray and white stone with tiny garnets in it that harbors a little flower on its back side. Please replace as found.
