On our way back from Mexico we stopped at this stone yard,
Canteras Guadalajara, in Imuris, Sonora
just about 40 miles south of Nogalos, Arizona.
We had passed by here many times over the years
and finally got around to stopping.
There are lots of carved items here.

the main highway south.

I assume it is safe to visit this area but the drug wars are a very fluid situation
and it is always good to check local conditions.
There were certainly no problems in early March.
