Bolivia to Chile - Border Crossing Locations
I'm heading into Bolivia from Salta in 2 days for a quick visit to Uyuni and the Salar. I then need to cross back into Chile and continue north to Lima.I was in San Pedro last week and want to avoid returning there. So I am lookjng for a border crossing north of the Ollague crossing. Anyone know where I can cross? Someone told me I could cross at SAN PABLO DE NEGRA / PASO ABRA ORIENTE DE NAPA, to the west of the Salar, but my map doesn't show an immigration aduana post there.
*I'm returning to Bolivia for a more extensive visit in May, so don't want to spoil it by riding long distances in Bol this time. And I want to spend a bit of time in N Chile.
More than happy on dirt roads.
Thanks!!

Thanks Manzini. Your Google skills are clearly better than mine!! I could only find various blogs and a date entry on Wiki. This is very useful.
I´d be keen to hear from anyone who has used one of these border crossings recently, to be sure they are open and accessible. Based on Manzini´s info, the crossing at CANCOSA looks most suitable for me, assuming that Paso Abra Oriente de Napa is still only open for import of sulphur (this info is dated 2007, so things may have changed since then).
Has anyone used CANCOSA or PASO ABRA ORIENTE DE NAPA recently?
Thanks!
