A warm wind pushes across the sand as you meet the camels at the edge of the Baja desert, the Pacific glittering to your left and dunes rising like slow-moving waves to your right. A guide checks saddles, offers a brief orientation, and you climb aboard; the camel’s gait rocks you forward and the shoreline opens — footprints trailing behind like a map of the morning.
