02-Feb-2002 -- I will buy a beer for the person who gets this confluence.

We went to Puerto Vallarta this last weekend and tracked this confluence on the GPS as we drove along the two lane highway through some of the thickest jungle in Mexico. We never got closer than 8km and during that stretch there were no towns or roads or people or places to even pull over! Think about the movie Romancing the Stone! There was a town about 17km past the closest point on the highway but our hapless Spanish was unable to get anyone to understand what we were looking for. We also could not find the town of La Mesa del Rodeo on any of the maps we have.

Good luck if you think you can get this one but I think without a helicopter or Indiana Jones this one will remain a gray dot on the map for a very long time.
