= POSSIBLE
On the 28th
of April, 2012 The ABC International Award group became the first school expedition team in El Salvador to cross the El Impossible park. This dramatic route traversed the wilderness area (famous for extreme topography), from south to north following
trails, animal tracks, and contour lines. The journey has only been completed
three times in recent memory, twice by professional game scouts…. yes, you guessed it, the
third time was us. Special permission from the park was granted to pass through
areas under maximum legal protection. The actual crossing took place on
Saturday 28th of April 2012; This journey of approximately 11 hours tested
their endurance, preparation, teamwork, spirit and overall; Determination to
succeed. The team also conducted a night survey of animals in the park and ended by walked through the coffee plantation area into Ataco on Sunday 29th.
