The morning opens with dust and the thump of a diesel engine as an open RZR shuttle pulls away from Puerto Vallarta toward the foothills of the Sierra Madre. Jungle smells rise with the heat; the trail climbs through dry tropical forest, past small streams that dare you to slow down, and stops at a series of viewpoints where the bay glints below.
