The Art of Travel Blog #4: The Darien

Description:
What is the Darien Gap? Where is it? Why is it one of the most dangerous jungles in the world? In "The Art of Travel," Conner Layne meets Christopher Loren and his wife Darlene. Both are leading a jeep expedition across this jungle - a trip that will last over 370 days! There are no roads... They will need to make roads by hacking with machetes.

To learn about the Darien Gap and the expedition, and how the film crew challenged the rain and bugs, enjoy this month's webisode: "The Darien"...
