This is a little video of a two day trip to see Salto Angel in Paque Nacional Canaima, Venezuela. We flew from Caracas to Puerto Ordaz and then boarded a small 12 passenger plane to fly into the base camp at Canaima. We had a short hike to get onto the long wooden boats where our guide took us up river for about 5-6 hours. When we got to Angel Falls we hiked through the jungle, up the mountain to get to the base of the incredible view. After some time there, we hiked back to the river where we set up camp for the night. After a rainy night sleeping near the thundering falls we ate some breakfast and got back on our boat to head down river. We stopped near base camp and set up for the night. Before bed we went on a hike to see Salto El Sapo (Frog Falls) and were able to walk underneath of it, which is arguably the neatest thing I have done in my life. Image walking about 300 yards in pitch black, cold water hitting your face at about 50-60mph and so loud you can not hear yourself scream! The only thing from the small slippery natural walkway to separate you from certain death was a water logged rope laying on the ground. And we walked under barefoot too. After a short hike back to camp we ate dinner and slept for the night. The last day we boarded the boat again and went to the base camp at Canaima Airport and flew back to Puerto Ordaz and than Caracas. If you are ever in the area, do this trip of a lifetime. This video does no justice.
