Los Algodones (near Yuma)

Moe is correct. You can cross via walking or driving. If you drive, the US Immigration will close the driving lane at 2 pm. So if you're waiting in the driving line and it's getting close to 2 pm and line is moving slow, it's time to drive to San Luis and get in line there, or get get a room in Algodones spend the night, get in line early morning then cross. As far as the walking line, they have been pretty lenient about the times. I been told by the Immigration people as long as there's a decent amount of people in the walking line, they won't shut the gate. Of course all subject to change. July 20 or 21st is when they announce what they are going to do for the following month. IMO, I think with this so-called Delta variant, they won't change the times in July.

Thanks for the info Fryer and Moe. Do you guys live in Yuma. I'm down here in Long Beach and there is a chance that my work will relocate to Yuma next January. Would really like to know what it is like living there. Thanks.

Yes! I go there to get my haircut, have lunch and drink a few beers at the Green Door. Nobody says shit! Border still closes at 2 pm and seems like they're never going to return to pre pandemic hours. Not sure what they're waiting for. Mexico is open though. Moe.

Can you cross over at Los Algodones without having to prove that you are an essential traveler?

Was down there Friday for about an hour cooling off having a drink. Mara is back if anyone remembers her. She came by and chatted for a few minutes. She has had too much work done on the lips, I don't remember if they were always like that but anyway. Also a few other girls working but none I was interested in. I have had a couple conversations there with other patrons about a girl with shoulder length black hair, 30's short maybe 5'4? She is not fat but no spinner. Been told she was at one point a man, anyone confirm? Not my type but I saw her go upstairs with an older snowbird dude. Makes me cringe if that's true.

I met a girl that fits the description maybe back in January. This chica was cute though. Told me she was 27 from chihuahua. She didn't used to be a man though. I could see the see-section on her stomach because she had a half shirt on. Maybe somebody was just messing with you about a post op working in there. Don't remember the girls name. Moe.

Stopped by the Green Door on Sunday after collecting my winnings from Caliente. There was at 7 or 8 ladies working, no dancing. A couple of nice spinners. I had a few beers and people watched. Left around 12:30 PM and headed towards the border. Waited about 10 minutes. To cross. A quiet day in Algodones.

Went on thurs 6/3 to get a haircut. Green door was open but I didn't bother going in. It was hot, maybe 107 or 109. Went to Pueblo viejo for a few cold beers and then got in line. Maybe 15 minute wait. Old woman in front of me was getting wobbly from the heat in line. BP agent had to put her in a wheelchair and bring her in the lobby. I told her she's lucky it wasn't August. Not sure what these old people are thinking. Moe.

How was the selection? $150 is high but I have seen a couple of Colombian girls that were very beautiful that were asking that earlier this year.

Sunday's selection wasn't great. Maybe 2 or 3 doable's. Taylor was the only real for sure one. She's from Tijuana and has or still is working at the Chicago Club in Tijuana. I don't know what the others were asking. Hours our 10 AM to close?? During the weekends I think they stay open late. June 20th or earlier we'll know if the border hours will change back to normal.

150? That seems a little steep. Did you see if they're still closed during the week? What are their hours? Are they still only open Fri sat and sun? I need to make a trip down and get a haircut soon. I would like to go when the green door is open. Last time I went on a Tuesday and they were closed. Moe.

I have been down recently and they were open on a Monday. As for hours I believe it opens at 10, closing idk. I leave to cross back by 2 pm.

Went to Algodones this Sunday with friends. Got the Green Door about 11 AM, and about 6 or 7 girls working. One girl going by the name Taylor is asking $150 dollars for 1/2 hour. A bro tried to negotiate with her, but she didn't budge off of the price. A couple of girls danced, but with clothes on. You can tip the girls on the stage, but no private dances that I saw. Saw other Yuma locals come into the bar, bought a round for them. Not too much action, but the beer was cold and had a good time. We left the bar at 1:30 PM and made our way to the border. About a 15 minute wait in the walking line. CBP was pulling alot of people into the secondary room. Of course they were brining too much cigarettes and alcohol, and they didn't want to go back to return the items. So they ended up paying the duty tax. I ran into a CBP officer friend and he was telling us this weekend is busy for the secondary, duty tax. All in all a good trip.

Hello,

Would anyone want to plan a weekend across the border when it opens up? I've always wanted to go with some experienced friends who can show me the ropes and have a good time for a couple of days.
