Early 1979
Another day, another expedition, another chance – Loren started again; unfortunately, this expedition was not meant to be. While in the Darien Gap, Loren had a run-in with a corrupt Colombian park official of the newly created Los Katios Park. Long story short, the park official wanted a pay-off, which was not in Loren’s character. The CJ-5 was abandoned deep in the jungles of the Darien Gap.
