24 January (continued) up and walked to the Quebrada Cantarara and back - no frogs. Then walked in grassy area E of our tents. ~2245h found a Leptodactylus pentadactylus in a 6" diameter hole in a 1m long, 1m diameter log. Then a Smilisca on top a nearby log.
25 January Everyone woke up ~6 AM, anxious about packing and leaving. Had breakfast, then Erik the cook packed everything up, so for lunch we had only granola. One Ford Cruiser came in ~1330 and took a load of gear out to the tractor and trailers at the Rio Bejo, then returned for us and our packs ~1500. Road better than when we came in, but still very rough. Reached La Virgen ~1730, had a cold beer, called La Selva, and waited 'til ~1930 when Victor picked me up. Finally carried my pack across the new bridge a little after 2000h, walked up to the new lab and ran into John Erdlen!
26 January Finea La Selva, near Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui, Prov. Heredia, Costa Rica Heard after breakfast that Edwin Paniagua saw a Felis concolor early this AM on the little bridge over the west boundary trail, just off the Camino Experimental. Went out to try to cost tracks, and saw a ? agouti w/young and many Ameiva. Spent the day getting cleaned up, settled in etc.
