Our stay at “La Reserva” was an adventure. It was very remote and the roads were very muddy. The trails were steep and slippery. (Amber will fill you in on a trial that Kaihla had.) Nevertheless, the students really enjoyed their stay, and we all very much appreciated the Costa Ricans working at this station. They have vision for this station and a passion to keep it going–despite little funding. This station is run by the University of Costa Rica, and they rarely host outside groups like ours. Juan Sanchez is largely responsible for us having the oppurtunity to visit this site. Thank you Juan!
