We hiked up to the Puerto Pepe viewpoint from the Santa Catarina church in Rinconada. It was very rewarding because the area was smog-free, and we were assisted by civil protection. What a beautiful view with the clear sky!

Beautiful church! My parents, Mr. Rubén Peña and Mrs. Genoveva, were among the founders many years ago, along with the Carvajal family, Martha Solís, and many more. Such beautiful memories!

It's in the Rinconada ejido; the little town is lacking life, it's very sad. We visited in the morning and there was no celebration or mass at the church.
