Hike to a Lake in the Crater of a Volcano in Guatemala DEC 17
Hike to a Lake in the Crater of a Volcano in Guatemala
Posted by TC
Thanks to Immersion Travel for publishing my article Chicabal Lake Volcano: Grassroots Ecology in Guatemala.
Wailing voices echo across the lake to where I sit on a bench, breaking open rambutans, small fruit the size of golf balls with hairy red peels. Three women bow down at the shore as they sing and pray, wearing the multicolored, woven dresses of Guatemalan Mayans. A man in jeans sits behind them and two small children quietly play. From about 50 yards away, I’m close enough to see, but I hope not close enough to be intrusive.

Rainbow Vision Gathering / Encuentro Visiones Arco Iris – Mazunte, Oaxaca, Mexico – Jan 1 to Jan 30 2014
[Alguien por favor agregue una traducción española en un comentario de abajo! Gracias!]
Welcome home to Jonas’ land near Mazunte!
This is an open invitation to a gathering of family, just like any rainbow gathering, but with a focus on activating Jonas’ land and projects and the RCL Scouting Mission in the mountains of Oaxaca. The caravan from California to Costa Rica will pass through the land for full moon December 17 to initiate the scouting and the seed camp for the gathering, which will go from new moon to new moon in January. As this gathering takes place on Jonas’ private land there is an opportunity to create permanent structures and other projects that won’t be torn down at the end of the gathering. Jonas’ visions for his land extend far beyond his personal interests.
How to get there:
From Mazunte go in the direction of Ventanilla, follow a sign on the right to Nido de las Aguilas, et voila!
See map below.
Please do not spread this message publicly on Facebook, especially not the map.
Welcome home! See you there!

PS! Having received a legal review by a professional of our legal requirements in our RCL DCI V2, it seems obvious that we need to make some changes to the DCI in order to help Costa Rica set up the first RCL Organization. I would like to call a circle at some point after full moon January at this gathering to focus on that.
