Hidden West

Beautiful night to camp on the sand above the crashing surf. It's been unseasonably warm and dry in Oregon so beach time starts early this year.

Save the Date! Cruiser Fiesta 2026 will be November 9 - 15 2026. The multi-stage format will remain. Capacity will be capped at 40 Land Cruisers (and Lexus cousins). Stay tuned for more details.

La Rumorosa Trail update:
This popular trail recently reopened after being closed for a couple of years due to storm damage. We climbed up it with a group of Land Cruisers and GXs in November '25 without incident during our adventure to Cruiser Fiesta. A path has been graded through the rock garden at the bottom so that part is now considerably easier. There are a few new boulder obstacles to squeeze through but we were able to get the LC200 through with only minor spotting. There are a few minor washouts that will become larger with future storms and will eventually have to be repaired in order to maintain a safe track. There are very few places to pass on this trail so be prepared to be patient with trail traffic and always note the last safe wide spot to reverse back to should you need it. La Rumorosa trail climbs/descends over 2000' over 13 switchbacks on the eastern edge of the Sierra Juarez.

Cruiser Fiesta is a multi-day celebration for Toyota Land Cruisers (and their Lexus cousins) in Baja. It is held each year in November. Many more photos (1100+) of the inaugural Cruiser Fiesta can be viewed on the Cruiser Fiesta website (link in bio)

Cruiser Fiesta 25 Photos (Explore the full gallery linked in the first comment):

In November, we ignited a spark with the inaugural Cruiser Fiesta in Baja California, a collaborative dream come true with Hidden West Adventures and the Baja Cruisers club.

This epic multi-day journey was designed to fuel diverse passions and schedules, featuring three distinct segments: the Baja Mil - rugged trails and the thrill of the Baja 1000 race, the main event - desert trailblazing outside San Felipe, and the post-event - beach camping and Sierra Juarez trail exploration.

Our mission is twofold: to share the beauty and charm of Baja with friends north of the border, and to empower the Land Cruiser community in Mexico. We're thrilled with our progress and can't wait to accelerate momentum! 🚀

A heartfelt thank you to our visionary sponsors who believed in us from the start: Modl, Dissent Offroad, onX Offroad, Midland Radio, Morrflate, sPOD, Baja Designs, GlueTread, and Ride Baja Mexican Insurance.

And a special shoutout to our talented content team at Rollin, including Miremadi, Stewart, and Speidel, who always capture the essence of our adventures beautifully.

The countdown begins for Cruiser Fiesta 26 - stay tuned for updates and join us next November! 🎉

Buckle up, party people! 🎉 Cruiser Fiesta is revving its engine! Get ready for a crazy ride of rocky trails, taco fests, and awesome loot - all with your favorite Land Cruiser pals! Score those tix, ASAP! Remember, this bash is for Land Cruisers and their Lexus homies only. No party crashers, please! www.CruiserFiesta.com

We finally made time to catch sunrise at Glacier Point and capture the infamous roller shots on the hairpin just above it. Love it here! Yosemite is a magical place.
