Lower California Peninsular History and Climate Survey
The expedition report claims Lower California was home to about 25,000 Indians resisting incursions. It notes main coastal trails, drastic population loss, and later American exploration for minerals and lands. Climate is hot arid with long droughts, scarce surface water, and the Rio Santo Domingo as a perennial stream. Desert flora thrives while animal life mirrors southern California. Population centers lie mainly south of La Paz with Ensenada and La Paz as capitals.
