Climbing towards El Charquiadero.
Up.
Up.
And up. It made a change from Bolivia where the air was thin and very dry. Here it was hot and very humid. Not sure which is worse.
It was an incredible sight climbing up these switchbacks watching the jungle unfold below.
At the top was a ruined police station built in the 1960´s to combat problems in the area with a guerilla group.
Problems with rogue groups of gorillas roaming the mountain sides kidnapping cyclists would have made for a more interesting story.
