November 3, 2006: Day 6 - Río Pacuare

View of the dam in Turrialba ...Río Reventazon?

Our starting point at the Río Pacuare. It rained a lot this day but that really doesn't mean a lot when you are white water rafting as you're constantly getting waves crashing into your face anyways. The Rio Pacuare is considered one of the most scenic white water rafting rivers in the world. Beautiful tropical forest and canyons line the entire path of the river.

We were told we would be camping this night but the folks at Exploradores Outdoors have a better idea of camping. This great 'camp' site they use has cabins with beds ... my idea of camping.

The kitchen and dining hall. The guys cooked a great dinner for us that night.

The comfortable cabins perched hillside, with well manicured grounds


Jude and Steve from London (UK). They were driving around Costa Rica and joined us for the 2 day Pacuare rafting trip
