December 16 - Guanacaste
We spent the 16th exploring Los Inocentes. Los Inocentes Lodge includes over 2,600 acres of virgin forest, second-growth forest, pastures and grasslands. The majority of the area that was previously used for grazing beef and dairy cattle is now held in conservation and is being gradually restored to forest. An extensive trail system traverses the property and continues into Guanacaste National Park which borders the property. Interesting Guanacaste tidbit - it is the dryest part of the country, only getting about 1 meter of rain each year (compared to California's 20cm!).
