I Took my Motorcycle to SINALOA CARTEL Territory - Espinazo del Diablo, Mexico 🇲🇽 🌮 E09

- Опубликовано: 20 янв 2024
- Imagine a huge chain of mountains, like a giant backbone, running along the west coast of Mexico. It's called the Sierra Madre Occidental, stretching over 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) from Arizona to Guanajuato. This place is full of extremes, with some peaks reaching 3,311 meters (10,868 feet) high and deep canyons that go down for thousands of meters. It's like the Grand Canyon, but even bigger!
The Sierra Madre Occidental is like a treasure chest full of amazing things. It's home to some of the tallest mountains in Mexico, with sharp peaks that feel like they touch the sky. Just imagine hiking up one of these giants and feeling like you're on top of the world.
And the canyons here are some of the deepest globally, even deeper than the Grand Canyon in some places. Picture looking down into one of these massive chasms and feeling like you're standing on the edge of forever.
This mountain range also has lush forests with tall trees, hidden caves sparkling with stalactites and stalagmites, and wide rivers rushing down the mountainsides. Along with all these incredible sights, the Sierra Madre Occidental is home to a variety of cool animals. You might see deer leaping through the forests, jaguars prowling the mountainsides, eagles soaring high above, and butterflies flitting from flower to flower.
If you're lucky, you might even come across the Tarahumara people, who have been living in harmony with the mountains for centuries. They're known for their amazing running skills and their deep connection to the land.
It's important to acknowledge that the Sierra Madre Occidental, despite its beauty and biodiversity, has been a center of cartel activity for decades. It’s easy to blame someone for this but just imagine yourself in these circumstances. Here are some of the most common problems:
- Poverty and lack of opportunity: Many communities within the region struggle with poverty and limited economic prospects, making them vulnerable to recruitment by cartels who offer financial incentives. What if you have a family but no other opportunity for a job except for illegal one? What if that’s what everyone around does and that’s the norm of your environment since childhood?
- Remote terrain: The vast and rugged mountains provide a natural hideout for illegal operations, making it difficult for law enforcement to establish and maintain a presence.
- Corruption: Corruption within law enforcement and government institutions can sometimes create an environment where criminal activity goes unchecked.
It's important to note that not everyone living in the Sierra Madre Occidental is involved in cartel activity. Many residents are deeply opposed to the cartels and their destructive influence. There are also ongoing efforts by local communities, Indigenous groups, and civil society organizations to combat cartel activity and promote peace and development in the region.
The part of the mountain range I am riding through is famous for its Sinaloa cartel. It's no secret that the infamous Sinaloa Cartel originated and remains deeply entrenched in the region, shaping its economy, politics, and even daily life for many residents.
The cartel primarily focuses on cultivating, producing, and transporting various drugs, including marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and fentanyl. Sinaloa serves as a major production hub for these substances. Cartel’s influence extends beyond Mexico.
Despite the cartel's negative influence, Sinaloa remains a land of immense beauty and cultural richness. Its beaches, mountains, and vibrant cities offer diverse attractions for tourists and locals alike. While the fight against cartels continues, finding solutions that address the root causes of poverty, lack of opportunity, and corruption is crucial for sustainable peace and development.
This is a complex issue with far-reaching consequences. It's crucial to stay informed about current developments and approach the situation with nuance, recognizing the struggles and resilience of the people living in Sinaloa.
Again - it’s easy to blame someone or even the whole country, but that doesn’t help anyone and that just adds up to the stereotypes. Mass media makes things worse by looking for attention-grabbing headlines.

I don’t like the topic .. Mexico 🇲🇽 it’s much more than cartels you still a liberal and more people help you !! No body hurt you! IN USA THERE ARE PEOPLE KILLING MASSIVE PEOPLE IN RUSSIA EXISTS BIG CARTELS..
❤It's okay to share the link if that doesn't bother you
Just stay out of there, there's plenty other countries to pick.
My father was adopted long ago through the Catholic orphanage. Several years ago through DNA. We found his blood relatives in Durango Mexico. Just three months before is passing he met his half sister. He is now late to rest there in Durango, I can’t tell you, how much this means to me seeing your video. I have a new Gen3 KLR and I’m going to see my dad 😢 he wanted to be close to the sister. He never knew. It’s a long way from Chicago but I have to go.
Wow, this story deserves a movie to be filmed! Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🙏🙏Safe travels! 🙏
Beautiful country Kseniia - as you said it is different to what I believed. I imagine cactus etc but those mountains are awesome. Beautiful roads and scenery. Thank you for taking us along with you. I am glad there was no drama on this section of the ride. I am looking forward to seeing Durango. Stay safe Kseniia.
Thank you!
"My dear humans" haha
The views of the mountains in Durango are almost dreamlike. I would have to pull off too many times to enjoy the views. Excellent video cool 😎.
Nice production work...Can't look away. Thanks for taking us where the normal people DON'T go.
Take good care of yourself, dont over do, we are here for you no matter what! Keep going❤ stay safe & happy travels
Hello Kesennia, the region you are traveling is one of the most beautiful places in Mexico, I’m sure there are better things to talk about than the cartels, almost all countries have the same cartels problem with different names. As a traveller I focus on the cultures, food historical buildings, and geographical wanders.
The reason the locals don’t want you to travel at night is because of the livestock and wildlife roaming the roads at night , you can’t see them. Besides a good motor biker never travel at night.
The reason we follow adventures like you is because we Learn from some of you about the places you visit.
Have safe travels.
You have a lot of potential.
Espectaculae video, gracias por mostrar los bellos paisajes de sinaloa. Mexico un pais bello , maravilloso. Buenas rutas Kseniia!!!!
Just found your channel!! Love it!🎉!
Nice scenic drive. I enjoy your videos. Be safe.
Awesome video! It is good to see you feeling better! That is a beautiful road that I did not know existed. Stunning views for sure. Best!
Beautiful cinematography Kseniia and your narrative adds so much to the video, which in itself, is quite spectacular. That is a beautiful road and you captured much of the beauty. I rode that road in the late 1950's on a family vacation. A friend on a GS had a head-on collision with a truck on that road and lived. As you know, vehicles don't always honor the centerline. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. You create very interesting presentations. Stay safe.
Great rode it’s a must do
Great video, great commentary and part of Mexico rarely visited!!!
Been through there many moons ago...words cannot describe it!! Stay safe and healthy!
Your videos are very inspirational, you are the best!!
👋😘
Наконец то! Я ждал.
Disfrutalo!
Awesome video Kseniia, thanks for sharing! 👍👍
One of your best yet. Great route, stunning landscape and relevant music. Thanks for uploading.
Another great vid. 👍🏼 Bring back some of the blues tunes you used before.😎
A very important thing to do while in Mexico is to always agree on an exact price before buying goods or services. You can haggle with them a bit to bring the price down like the parking for $30, maybe they would have taken $20 or even $15. This was a beautiful video to watch on a lazy Sunday morning after arriving home from Mazatlan last night. Take care Kseniia and looking forward to next Sunday!
Your videos are getting amazingly better! Great job! Молодец!
If I may point something out regarding the bike. You should try to avoid filling the gas tank all the way to the top. These bikes have an EVAP system that catches and recycles the gas fumes from the top of the tank. Filling the tank to the top will cause the gas to pour into that system and cause problems. Keep the fuel level several inches below the top of the filler neck. It's in the manual.
Awesome mountains thanks for sharing
Hi Kseniia !. When you are travelling along on your bike and you feel like some company...all you have to do is switch on your camera...and you have instant companions !
I guess some of your followers worry about you sometimes...and I am one of them ! You highlighted this when you put your sunglasses on while riding ! ....I hope you don't do that too often !
Thanks for the usual pleasant video ....and Love from Australia 🏍🦘🇦🇺🌹
👍👍
Hello, Kseniia, like the road you are taking best of luck and be careful out there!
Just be yourself dont push your limit,, love it ❤❤❤❤❤
Everyone has their own pleasure, there are those who like the hustle and bustle of riding a motorbike with friends, there are also those who like to ride alone, all the decisions are yours. If you want to try something new, riding alone is better and makes us calmer, do it and the important thing is to be able to do it. overcome obstacles while on the road,, because experience is the best teacher for us,,
bravo kesenia eres muy valintesaludos y un abrazo
Imagen y narrativa excelente . . . saludos
New subscriber ❣️

Super 🎉
Hi! Kseniia, I’m a fan and very impressed of your courage and your journey to the whole world just be safe and take care always wherever you go, anyway, just to let you know I think you have a voice microphone problem it’s not coming thru well, not clear, not in stereo when I listen or watch your videos so hope you’ll fix this. Thanks and good luck!!!❤😘🙏
Without any doubt the two most entertaining adventure tourers on motorcycles are Kseniia and Noraly aka Itchyboots, Both have hearts of gold and each relates with beauty and dignity toward the locals and the locals toward them.
Both of you are breaking the stereotypes about many peoples across this wonderful world and showing us amazing beauty everywhere you go
The world is full of good decent people helpful and nowhere represented any better than by you two wonderful women riders unlike the MSM who have much to answer for in how they portray many of the worlds people.
I am especially impressed with your Movie effort to help those looking after and educating the poor of Mexico, That is a true showing of your charcter God speed and all the best for your endeavours in that regard and may many more discover your channel on RUclips.
As good as many Documentaries show us the world around us few bring the in depth understanding both of you do and that is a priceless gift to all who follow your adventures
I noticed at around 29 minutes in the familiar sound of a Bell Helicpoter the sound those rotor blades make with their 18"cord width is unmistakable to me, I wonder if it was a Guardia Chopper or a Sinaloa Chopper running drugs both are possible in that area such a beautiful area Mexico is easily as diverse as the USA both in Scenery and the People at all levels.
The roads are generally very good at Main Road Level and Fuel availability much better than across much of Africa.
23:08 23:10 23:11 Ksenia you have to found hotels with parking in all México you can found it, now you are a profesional because the " espinazo del diablo" is one of the best and more dificult routes in México, welcome to México and if you want a place to be in Leon guanajuato you are invited to my home with my family, we can ride to guanajuato and san miguel de allende, good look 😊
Hope you can travel to Borneo Island.Its much Fun and Safe
Hola hermosa amiga Kseniia te saludo aca guatemala me gusto tu recorrido de Mazatlan a durango belleza de montañas m gusta verte cuidate mucho no trabajo no puedo colaborar cnmtigo perdoname felicitaciones para Russia eres guerrera te felicito bye
Stunning beautiful countryside. Very nice clip , thanks What size engine is your BMW motor cycle?
Thank you! Engine is 1250
be very careful!...
Te recomiendo subir a Chihuahua y visites la Sierra Tarahumara y si te es posible, baja a Batopilas, como me gustaría acompañarte y enseñarte esa parte de la sierra que es magnífica y maravillosa. Yo soy como tú, siempre viajo solo en mi moto.
I’ve put this on my map for the next time, thanks! 🙏
Come back on RUclips I miss you 😢
♥️♥️
Ksennia I don’t want to be mean;but I’m sure there is much better things to talk about this region; I think you choose a very sensitive topic I know is a real fact but I’m still sure there are things to describe in the area that the rest of the people can be interested to know about it. Thanks for sharing this trip.
Snow flake go make your own videos 😂😂
@@Mick_English I was trying to get the attention of the circus owner , not the animals attention!
Well balanced video content! Always enjoy your videos both the narration and the cinematography. Stay safe!
It is what it is
@@antongorrioYou CAN be MEAN, can't you !
That was a rhetoric statement of course !
Hello my dear cute human just be carefull with the carteles SINALOA and CHIAPAS is dangerous and always ask ...be safe
👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌🌹
Kseniia, What type of tires are you using?
These are Trailmax Mission! Wouldn’t use them in the mud, but perfect for everything else.
Una ruta preciosa¡¡¡ Te recomiendo que aprendas un poco de español ya que vas a ir hasta Argentina para poder interactuar con las personas...y hablas mucho sobre los cárteles de la droga pero México es otra cosa, no sé quién te ha contado eso que dices....yo si tendría miedo en Estados Unidos eso si que es una jungla...por tú interés el fentanilo se elaboró por primera vez en Bélgica y Steven Sacler un Estadounidense director de una farmacéutica lo puso a la venta en los EEUU gracias a los votos del Congreso así que no le metan la culpa a México¡¡¡¡
Does it count that pigs and bears have the same genomes?
😎😎
🤙🏻🤙🏻
Haha! Still not in Canada!!!
@@kseniiaadv 😁😁
I, too, noticed that when traveling with others, one doesn't talk to/meet locals as much, which is a Good part of the experience; you don't get to "stop & smell the roses" (or take a shower 😂). Feeling that one is affecting others' trip by stopping when you want/need, detracts from your trip experience, as well.
Noticing that a century ago one could buy opioids at the local apothecary (what they used to call a drug store) with NO 'prescription', I concluded that the simple solution to 'the drug problem' is to simply take the money out of drugs - by making everything legal, again! When they repealed "Prohibition" in the U.S. (1933), did everyone become an alcoholic? Nope! Some did; but, that is one of the tests in life ... 'worshiping false gods' i.e. succumbing to the false promises of substance abuse (whether drugs or alcohol). "You can't legislate morality.", as they say.
Hola keseniia
As you do not know english that well, whenever you forget the word in english that u should say, instead of saying it in russinian please say it in brazilian portuguese so we can understand it better. Just an advice and thanks for the video
I see a few people in the comments crying about the title and that she should change it. There's nothing wrong with the title. That area is cartel territory, plain and simple. It's a fact of life there. Now if she' added something like "danger", "escaped" or "in fear for my life", when she clearly wasn't, then that's a different thing. In Jalisco, they've got their own cartel. Michoacan same thing. Chihuahua, etc. She's simply stating a fact in the title. Watch the video and she goes into detail regarding the situation there.
Not everyone is fully aware of the situation in Mexico. Yeah, they may know that the cartels are a huge deal in Mexico, but may not know specific details about where to and not drive to. Last year I was on vacation in Mexico and the day after I had left there was cartel attack on members of the military along the route that I took to get to the airport. If I had a channel, would it be wrong for me to mention the ambush? No. Nothing wrong with state the obvious. Bad enough we've got a generation of soy boys in the U.S., not they got them in Mexico.
Thank you so much! I could not express my thoughts better 🙏
Do You go to Durango?
Yes!
30 USD for parking seems excessive.
Too much talking about the cartels, you are the first traveler/blogger that talks lots about the cartels rather than the scenery...and one note, the Tarahumaras are not in Sinaloa, they are in Chihuahua.
30 $ otopark ciddi soygun😤
🧿🧿🇹🇷🏍🙋♂️
Peeople is right DON IDE AT NIGHT if something happen nobody see you in that part of MEX better ride safe dont play with SECURITY...
Dont ride af night, because so many wild animal, that the reason ! So if you wanna try it.. go 😂😂😂😂 but becarefully when ride ..... finger cross girls.
you can rent a car for 30 dollars a day😲😲
Vlog one time in india then your subscribe more
"$30" Mexican/Pesos is about $1.5O or Less US dollars. You probably made that "guys" day! 😄 And If they wanted $30 US, You Should Have said No! And remember... Always agree Clearly on the price before you do anything. 🙂

Please, don't post your journey in real time.
It's for your own safety.
Post your travel and route couple of weeks later, when you are a long distance of the cities of the videos.
When the people like the man in a gas asking you about your next city don't tell them the routed you will take in this specific day...
Don't trust in somebody, specially in the police (municipal) sometimes they works for the local cartel's and the common people sometimes too.
Be careful in Michoacan and Guanajuato.
Good roads to you...
Hi beauty ur mic still have the problem i mention before !!🕵♂
Hi! Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately the whole Mexico series were recorded with the same microphone. But I’ll try to fix it for the next videos.
Kswnia I hope you fix the title , it’s very offensive to all the good people you saw along the way..
You visit Mexico, without encountering any cartels and what you obviously talk about is cartel, WTF!
Decir traje mi moto por Sinaloa territorio del cartel es como decir, di un paseo por las calles de los ángeles territorio de drogaadictos, o por nueva York el territorio de los homeless, hay drogadictos en Los Ángeles y homeless en NY, no significa q pertenezca a ellos sino q ellos están allí, suena bastante despreciativo tu título!
Cursing russian
Con respeto, no se deberías opinar de lo que no sabes, pues no vives en México, así como yo no vivo en Rusia o estados unidos, no puedo opinar de sus situaciones políticas o de seguridad
Ella tiene la libertad de opinar lo que quiera sobre su perspectiva. Justo así como también tu puedes opinar aquí en su timeline.
@@cegesmxgobiernoempresasoci7768 como siempre salen los defensores, por eso antepuse "con respeto"
well, may be at the beginning, it was about poverty, but now a days, young people see their chance to make money fast, so they get into, and sometimes, just for fun, the americans send weapons and money, this is how they pay for the drugs that they consume, so, is a big business
The topic it’s not
Nice sincerely more people it’s nice to you and nobody hurt you I hope you fix the title..
Stick on riding and beautiful places you travel some people might get offended
