Teams Complete Mammoth Trek



The North and South teams have successfully completed their crossing of the Maya Mountains in small groups over the last 2 weeks. With big smiles when they reached Caracol, the groups sat and watched the sun set after an amazing 9 day trek which saw them making their way through tough and untouched jungle.

Trekforce HQ is still waiting for images of the trek as all cameras are on project while the groups work hard to get ready for their opening ceremonies next week but here are a few for now....

Trekking is hard work. The volunteers must carry everything with them so they can set up camp each night...



Ice cold drinks are always a welcome sight after the Maya Mountain Trek...



The North Team celebrate at the top of Caracol...



Then the finale- watching the sun set over the jungle canopy and listening to the calls of primates and birds...
