Gocta Waterfalls, Part Two…

This time with the 9 new Peace Corps volunteers that will be joining the crew in Amazonas department at the end of this month.  We all took the day off to hike the lower section of Gocta Cataratas starting from Cocachimba.  After the couple hour hike we enjoyed swimming in the cold pool below and taking in the magnificent folded rock layers.

One of the many nice days out here in Amazonas.. we do have plenty of bad, rainy days though..

This being the bottom of the bottom falls. Waters are surprisingly quite rough right underneath the spray.

7 of the 9 new volunteers who will be stationed here in the Amazonas region: Lucas, Tony, Katie, Brad, Madeline, Jacob, and Josh.

Worth visiting here in this part of Peru.. pretty awesomely tall waterfall.
