Cerra Azul Meambar National Park, Honduras

This is the hike we went on in the park. Notice all distances were measured in time.

One of the beautiful views from a mirador on the trail.

As we enter the cloud forest. WE went through many different climates. Humid jungle, cloud forest, bamboo and jade forests. It was crazy feeling the change as we hiked.

Amazing cloud forest!!

Waterfall # 1 on the hike. 15 min. from our campsite.

Dave and I at the first waterfall.

One of many suspension bridges along the way, maximum capicity 3 people.

The biggest dragon fly I have ever seen, over 6" wingspan.

Cicada on the trail.

If you look close you can see the trail of army ants. Dave was explaining to us how we should not touch these things, just then we realized that we were in between two large groups of them. Dave tried to tip toe past them and fell over on both groups (with his shirt off)! He made an amazing recovery, lept back to his feet and ran away in a fury without being swarmed! Fucking awesome.

If you look closely you can see a 6' yellow and black snake on the left side of the picture. Dave nearly stepped on this thing and it didn't budge, we had a stand off and a few minutes later the snake left.

Jungle shower.

Thick jungle growth.

Bamboo cooked pasta, potatoes, onions, green beans, raddishes, and tomatoe sauce. Since we didnt't have cookware we made a bamboo pot and chopsticks. Best jungle diner ever!

Huge purple hummingbird.

Our campsite, still waiting for the tent!!

This was or van from La Guama to the national park. On our way to the park the thing was about to fall apart, when it picked us up two days later it did. They lost the side door and the back door almost fell off as well.
