Salt Flats at Guerrero Negro

At Guerrero Negro we stayed at a place that offered whale watching. We also met a group of motorcyclists calling themselves the "Globe Trotters" (five people) headed down to Tierra del Fuego for a very long moto journey. They were on our whale watching adventure. The tour guide claimed that one third of the world's salt comes from Guerrero Negro. He also said that Mitsubishi Corp. and the Mexican Government own the company that harvests the salt, employing thousands and supporting the whole town.
