  "living in that research station in "Lost""
  "Spent two nights/ three days in the dorms here. Sirena is a 60's-style research center with dorms and covered camping area smack in the middle of Corcovado. The dorms are extremely basic with no sheets (remember to bring your own!!), towels, soap, etc. Camping is probably more comfortable as it i..."s not as hot-- but bring a mosquito net!!!

No one else fell but -just sayin' my word of caution. The rest of the park was the most jungle I've ever been in. The trails were easy but you must watch that you don't trip on protruding roots. Loads of monkeys, tapirs, birds, peccaries, etc. Definitely worth having a good guide. The hike was mostly in the shade but still very hot. " More >
