"El Rosario (The Rosary) - As recently as the mid-1960s, El Rosario was portrayed as "the end of the line". Roads to the south could only be described as primitive. Mail service and the weekly bus from Ensenada proceeded no further. The completion of the Tran peninsular Highway in 1973 was to alter El Rosario's place in the sun. Rather than end, the town is now more properly looked upon as the beginning; for here the new highway starts its lengthy journey through the interior mountains and deserts of the peninsula.
