The whales or cetaceans that we know today, are the result of 70,000,000 years of evolution, of a whale called Arqueocetos that although it was more a land mammal than a whale, it was a primitive cetacean that lived sometime around the Eocene Miocene era. Long before , who knows when, the ancestors of our whales had to come out of the ocean where they lived as amphibian mammals and afterwards because of their great size and eating necessities return back to the seas to be this arqueocetos, father sort of speak of the whales we know today. In our adventure we will visit the Gray Whale ( Eschrichtius robustus ) member of the order mysticetes or whales with out teeth, in its Mexican winter home, where it breeds and also calves after one of the longest migration of any other mammal, from the Artic seas of the North, to the Lagoons of Baja California.

Characterized by its great canyons, The Sierra Madre in the state of Durango has more than 10 of them, that surpass 6000 feet in depth, and it is probably the county of San Dimas the best example of this. The canyons of Ventanas and Piaxtla that cross its boundaries, are impressive because of their depth and endless rock formations.
