| Trailhead to Waterfall I Missed Tenorio Volcano National Park, Costa Rica Strong winds had knocked some trees over trail. Closed all 3 days there. It was interesting to learn that Bomberos (Firemen) would clean it up. And yes, some people went around the yellow tape anyway. Not me. Sendero Cerrado – Trail Closed |

You may be asking how it could be so wet when you are still in the “Dry Season.” Well, in a cloud forest like this it is always humid, misty, and sometimes raining, year-around. Maybe more so during the rainy season. Same goes for the coastal rainforests, while we in the Central Valley have two very distinct seasons. That is why the majority of the population lives in the Central Valley.
