Report From JJ

One Mexican in Mexico, dressed in black, sighted while watching us
from behind a boulder as we talked around dusk, Saturday evening.
Mexican took evasive action once he knew he was spotted. No voices,
but noises made by a large group of people heard coming from general
area where coyote was spotted(maybe a group in the 10-15 person
range). We stayed on this position until around midnight, hindering
any attempt to cross here.(J J and Weasel, who was replaced by
Chicago Joe). Remainder of night uneventfull, save for a violent
thunderstorm around 04:00 Hours. I went mobile around daylight,
enjoying the rare treat in desert country of having all tracks
washed out by the heavy rain. All roads were clean EXCEPT for the
hair pin turn down in Gloria Canyon, where one small Mexican (size 7-
71/2 shoe) tryed to camoflage his entry across the road there by
walking high on the bank along the road for a ways, and then "tippy-
toeing" on his toes across the road, and then half way up the side
of a hill into the U.S. As far as I know, he was the lone entrant
in our area. Kingfish says this small footed Mexican has been
plagueing him for quite a while now. He always works alone, and may
carry in drugs, as well as guide in people occassionally. He may
have been the lone black suited coyote we had seen the previous
evening, just south of the hair pin turn in Gloria.
Border Patrol helicopters have been assisting in more and more
captures in the deep canyons of the Campo area lately, possibly due
to ground units having acquired new scopes (night vision) in some of
the new, (all white with no markings) Homeland Security Pickups.
With the scopes, the B.P.'s OWN the high ground, and ridges, and
force the illegals down into the sensor laden canyon floors, where
they trigger a helicopter response. It is definitely getting harder
and harder to get in undetected through the Campo area, and
the "locals" are loving it. No more of the dogs barking all night
long, as the illegals plyed their way down from the Border. Most
illegal traffic has moved to the West, and Tecate area, as the Campo
Minutemen have continued to be a deep thorn in the side of the Felix
Drug Cartel's smuggling operations in the area.
Well I've got a couple of days off due to work disruptions at the
jobsite, so I may take in one of the MM protests, or something. The
big fires near Palm Springs are about over, so clean air will be a
much appreciated plus.

MAKING history on the Campo Line,
