San Diego - Tijuana River Reserve - "International Border Crossing"

            Emblem of International Border Crossing between San Ysidro (USA) and Tijuana (Mexico) on the Tijuana River basin map outside the Visitor Center. Most of the Tijuana River watershed is in Mexico, but the mouth is in the USA. Saw several Border  Patrol agents searching for a non-existent "illegal" near the river mouth. The border crossing, which marks the south end of Interstate 5, is the busiest in the world.

Until recently the border from San Ysidro to the Pacific Ocean was a few strands of barbed wire with a monument in Border Field (dedicated by Pat Nixon). Now there are 3 paralell walls, the Monument is inaccessable, and vehicles can only enter Border Field a few days per year
