	euskalherria.com - GARA - Paperezkoa:20060818 - Pitillas, un paseo por juncos y carrizales
		En la falda de la sierra de Uxue, a 3 kilómetros al sureste de la localidad mencionada, en medio de un paisaje estepario brota la Laguna de Pitillas.
		Este tipo de balsas son muy comunes en esta zona de Nafarroa, donde las tierras esteparias de margas y arcillas soportan altas temperaturas en verano.
		A partir de ese momento tomaremos la referencia de las vallas que limitan la laguna y seguiremos éstas hasta llegar al observatorio.

		In between the mountainous pine-oak forests and the dry xeric scrub of The Cape Region lies the Sierra de la Laguna Dry Forests ecoregion, a unique hotspot for biodiversity on the peninsula.
		The dry forests of Sierra de la Laguna are home to some 224 species of plants, half the reptiles and amphibians in the entire Cape Region, and 96 percent of the region's mammals.
		In Baja California Sur, the dry forests of Sierra de la Laguna are relatively intact, except for heavy grazing.

	Mexican Pinyon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The range extends from westernmost Texas, United States (where it is confined to the Davis Mountains) south through much of Mexico, occurring widely along the Sierra Madre Oriental and Sierra Madre Occidental ranges, and more rarely in the eastern Eje Volcánico Transversal range.
		There is also a disjunct population in the Sierra de la Laguna of southern Baja California Sur.
		Mexican Pinyon is a relatively non-variable species, with constant morphology over the entire range except for the disjunct population in the Sierra de la Laguna pine-oak forests of Baja California Sur; this is generally treated as a subspecies, Pinus cembroides subsp.

	CABO TO CABO. BY JOE CUMMINGS ON MEXICO CONNECT
		It's a pretty drive, with the northern end of the Sierra de la Laguna visible in the distance off to the left side of the highway and relatively verdant desert--some of the cacti even bear ball moss, nourished by moist Pacific air--closer in on both sides of the road.
		Beneath the town's sleepy surface and behind the century-old brick-and-plaster facades lives a small, year-round colony of expatriate artists, surfers, and organic farmers who have found this locale to be the ideal place to follow their independent pursuits.
		A few La Paz residents maintain homes here as temporary escapes from the Cortez coast's intense summer heat; these are complemented by a seasonal community of California refugees from the high-stress film and media worlds who make the town their winter retreat.

		Mexico: Baja California Sur: Sierra de la Laguna, at 1200-2000 m (Perry 1991).
		An exploratory study by Biondi and Fessenden (1999) found that the trees could not be crossdated due to high incidences of missing and "false" rings in a geographically tight collection of dominant trees.

		There are four trails that cross the Sierra de la Laguna, from west to east (or east to west).

		Fearful that the Mexican idea of a trail may coincide with the Guatemalan and Chilean idea of a trail, which is to connect two points with the shortest possible route, usually straight up, we made a concerted effort to get an early beginning to our hike.
		To reach the 'laguna' --- a meadow --- and the goal at the top of the trail, we had read that we would climb approximately 5,000 feet in 5 miles.
		The signs, plus the fact that virtually all branch roads leading away from the primary dirt road were unpassable for the bus, led us to the "parking lot" by the gate (a small, uneven clearing where you could get your vehicle off the road).

	Sun, Fun and Sports in Cabo San Lucas, Baja California, Mexico
		Our family's six-day, 25-mile hiking visit to the central portion, La Laguna, the remote and beautiful ancient lake-bed, is not what the average tourist will ever attempt.
		We arrived in Sierra de Laguna on day four, to enjoy a lovely mid-day dip in the pools and marvel at the surrounding foliage.
		While our party of six returned from the lake bed in two days, along the same trails that we had used (and machete-marked) coming in, another access to La Laguna is also possible by making a steeper climb (estimated eight-miles) and entering (or exiting) from the western, Todos Santos side of the mountain range.

	Geology of Baja California
		The tilted granitic fault blocks are represented by the Sierra Juarez and the Sierra San Pedro Martir which form the main granitic ranges of the State of Baja California and the Sierra La Laguna of the Cape region mountains.
		The Sierras were worn down and a gently rolling erosion surface was developed on the exposed rocks.
		The splitting of the continent tilted the peninsula westward forming the asymmetric fault blocks of the main ranges of the Sierra Juarez, Sierra San Pedro Martir, Sierra la Giganta and uplifting other ranges such as the Sierra la Asamblea and Sierra la Victoria.

		At several points, Cañon La Laguna can be entered with some difficulty from the ridges above by climbing down steep, crumbling rock walls choked with heavy brush and vines that often force you onto all fours in order to make any headway.
		This experience brought us an appreciation of the awesome and untouched beauty of the deep canyons of the Sierra La Laguna and reinforced the care and respect that even experienced outdoorsmen must show when entering such a wild and untouchable area.

		In the north, rainfall is confined almost entirely to the winter months, excepting the higher parts of the Sierra San Pedro Martir, while in the southern half of the peninsula most of the rain falls in the summer, but with a little coming in the winter.
		But it does not treat the plants in the chaparral, the oak-coniferous forests of the Sierra Juarez, and the coniferous stands in the higher parts of the Sierra San Pedro Martir and in the Sierra de la Laguna in the Cape Region.
		One laguna, as these dry lake beds are called locally, was six miles long and a third as wide in November, 1959, and around its margins were actually hundreds of acres bearing dense stands of Marsilea.
