Desert Missions

journey to a mission in Northwestern Mexico. Labeled by locals as “Heroic Caborca,” this mission actually was used as a fortress by the local townspeople. Using this mission, they successfully defended their town from an invading militia from the United States in the 1800s. To this day, bullet holes in the walls convey vivid evidence of battle.
