    A hard hike, but well worth it

    Thomas_R, Feb 2026
    I'm a pretty slow hiker, and my guide Jaime was incredibly gracious with the fact that my pace probably added an hour or so to the round-trip time. He also had an excellent ear and eye for local wildlife, often pointing out toucans or monkeys in the trees along our route, which really added to my enjoyment.
