It turns out there is a little lodge at the mouth of the Rio roosevelt. After showers and cold beer I think we feel about as refreshed as Roosevelt did we he saw the rest of his original party camped here 100 years ago. It has been a pleasure following in Roosevelt’s footsteps. Paul and I still have 2 weeks in Brazil.

We plan to work our way back to the headwaters of the river. We are going to try to contact the Cinta Large again to gain access to the beginning of the river. We really want to meet the Cinta Larga and paddle the first part of the river. We look forward to sharing the rest of the adventure with you.
