On our second morning of exploration, we visited the called Yanayacu and Pucate Tributaries. Exploring from the vantage of expedition watercraft is truly an enjoyable experience! All we need to do is sit back and let the breeze caress our faces while we take in the fantastic scenery. Guides will stop occasionally to point out findings, things and creatures so subtly placed you’d think it impossible for human eyes to detect.

During the afternoon we visited a local medicine woman to learn about the medicinal culture of this area and the plants used by those living in the jungle. Following, we walked through more tropical rainforest, along trails and suspension bridges. What we were provided today was an in depth look into life within this dynamic ecosystem, and to take it all in from the vantage of an authentic suspension bridge made the experience all the more total!
