Zd971. Nazasa Bay viewed from the Nazasa Ridge, north crossing point. I walked up here in 2 hours and 50 minutes. I’m a slow walker, stop often to take pictures; also I stop often when going up a hill to slow down my heart beat and breathing rate. The trail is in perfect condition but today I turned around because that was all I wanted to do today. I want to walk it soon all the way to the bay, which should take another two hours to go down. Then, I either take a boat to Pundaquit or stay overnight and walk back. Anyone would like to join me? I walked to the Nazasa Bay several times in the past, using either this crossing or the south one. This valley was used as a bombing range and strafing range by the US Navy in 1945 and maybe later. A friend and I came across vehicles in this bay valley that were used as targets.

Zd972. The Cawag and Cayuag River Valley viewed from near the Nazasa Ridge Trail crossing. You should be able to identify the north end of the bay of Subic Bay.

Zd958. This is one of 10 images of the Bataan West Road between point No1 and point No 2 on the map of image No. Zd953. No 1 Point is the entrance to very large Camaya Development area, and a Philippine Army outpost and the road to Lague Bay starts here. No 2 Point is the Quinauan or Quinawan River Bridge, between those two points was the last segment of the Bataan West Road that needed work and it is done except one small place where work is being finished and one section of the road has a down-slope road bank problem. Now it is a nice scenic cruising road!

Zd953. This is a cropped section of a prewar US Army 1: 250000 map of the Manila area but it has all of Bataan and the Bataan West Road. The northern part of Bataan is cropped away! I marked up for your morientation.

Zd970. This is one of three images of the renewed road to Binuangan Village and a branch road to Caibobo Village. The road to Binuangan existed before as a one lane hard surface and dirt road but is now improved. The branch road to Caibobo is new; it was only a trail before. Neither of the roads are total complete, a short piece to go yet on each road. I understand that Caibobo Point was the original goal of the Japanese during the Battle of the Points and some escaped that way. A little more to go to Caibobo.
