Barba amarilla (aka fer de lance) are bad news. The trip went smoothly and was able to show locals new mountains and rivers. Beware of Delorme inreach. Mine malfunctioned and kept sendingSOS when none was needed. Unaware to us the USA Air Force, Honduran special forces were on standby for several days thinking narcos kidnapped us. I ended up taking the device apart to stop false messages.

Taking my Pech friend to a remote valley and showing him artifacts from his ancestors was the highlight. He sat on a log all day in pouring rain just smiling and asking how I found it.

I'm already studying maps for another round. Crique Uhurukawakana has a nice ring to it. My Pech friend has some wild stories from the last year. Still not sure if I believe the stories but I believe him. Worth a look I suppose!

I am heading back to the jungle! Almost have logistics worked out for 15 days of rafting and hiking the entire drainage from headwaters to the coast. Excited to show my friend the top Macaw biologist in HN where the wild birds still fly!
My work will be less exciting... Terrestrial land snails and lampyridae...and not getting us lost. Haha
