Panama Expedition Struggles Across Darien Gap
British Army expedition members slog through Darien Gap in Panama on the Alaska to Tierra del Fuego route. Mud, giant insects, log jams, and swamp terrain slow progress. 61 started, 30 remain, two women among the group. They rely on Range Rovers, pack horses, and air support as they inch toward Bogota before the rainy season. Maj. Kelvin Kent compares the crossing to Annapurna climbs, noting the Darien crossing is, in some ways, tougher than Himalayan expeditions or jungle campaigns.
