Version 0 of 1.

Military and police planes began airlifting tourists from the resort town of Los Cabos on Tuesday as residents began to tally the wreckage left by Hurricane Odile, the strongest storm to hit the Baja California peninsula in almost 50 years. The Category 3 storm smashed luxury hotels and swept away poor neighborhoods, but officials said there were no deaths. Electricity and phone service were cut off across the state of Baja California Sur, and the Los Cabos airport was closed to commercial flights.
