November 13-27, 1999 Itinerary

We have posted our itinerary for our upcoming November trip. It is tentative at this point as we must wait and see what permits we receive from the Reserve before we know exactly where we will be allowed to travel. When we have more details we will post them to the site.

Crafts of the Rainforest

The people living along the river create many beautiful and interesting crafts. All of them are made from products found in the forest. Many of these items are very useful in their daily lives.

Solar Powered

This trip all of our computer equipment and our satellite phone will be solar powered. Read about our portable solar equipment and how we manage to keep all our equipment charged while on the boat.

Tamara's Journal

Tamara is continuing her research in the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve. Periodically she sends us portions of her journal along with photographs that we post to this website.

Take a look at Tamara's Journal to find out how her research is going and what recent adventures she has had while following the dolphins.
