The Adventures of Zulu 2... So far

Fieldbase dropped in on Zulu 2 again for their second food drop, this time in Purisil. We spent a fun evening with the group behind a pulperia, complete with showers and toilets. Though the new trek has taken on some sort of notoriety throughout this expedition, Z2 are taking it well in their stride. Venturer, Michael has penned a few words for our blog followers:

Zulu 2 - Day 10

The Journey began for Zulu 2 in Cimarrones, where the group of eager trekkers stepped off a bus and into torrential rain. The Zulus stare at maps of teasing contour curves, rivers and roads - or tracks? who knows?

So with heavy backpacks not weighing down our aspirations to walk like we have never walked before, we head southwest; bound for jungle, bogs, rivers, bridges, hills, mountains and eventually, the beach.

We tackle each obstacle in our path, be it at landslide or wild rivers and are halfway through the adventure destined for "El Dragon". With spirits higher than ever and a fresh set of pork and beans in our bags, we venture back into the wilderness after a four-day break from the rough and tumble of the jungle.
