From Mazatlan to San Carlos is an 11 hour trip, mostly on Toll roads and believe me the tolls are extremely high. Even though most of the roads are 4 lanes they are really rough, meaning potholes and broken pavement. With the money they collected from me I would think they would improve the roads. Many Mexicans don't make enough wages to pay taxes so they have to collect the money somehow, so tolls are the answer.
We made it to the San Carlos area around 5 PM but it has been years since we traveled this route so we were looking for a sign that says "San Carlos ". The city/town of Guaymus and San Carlos are close together but you would think that there would be a sign for both town. Wrong; apparently they only had enough money for one sign and they chose to name it Guamus not San Carlos so we drove right by the turnoff . We kept thinking there must be a sign but finally we decide to check with a Pemex station and we had driven 50 KM pasted our turnoff to San Carlos. We considered staying at the Pemex but thought we would feel more comfortable in an RV park so we turned around and went to the RV park in San Carlos. Besides we were really for a restaurant meal, which would be our last Mexican style meal for this trip.
The RV park owner allows us Travelers who are just stopping overnight to park in the driveway and allows us to connect to the utilities. That way we do not need to unhook the car which is why we travelers stop here.
So parked the MH, hooked up the utilities and had our MX supper. Cheers
