A Drive over the Divide (1/24/11)

east of Caldera (the lower east-west leg)



Boquete to Almirante

This was such a pretty drive of just under 4 hours with almost no traffic to speak of, I thought I'd share some of the views. Click on the map for full-screen and once again for limited zoom, something you can do with any photo.
