An Impossible Place To Be
Panama's mythic Darién Gap—a 10,000-square-mile swath of jungle on the border of Central and South America—has swallowed explorers for centuries. Today, guerrillas, drug smugglers, poachers, and jaguars rule this vast no-man's-land. Our explorer spent six weeks trying to penetrate Dari�n's heart of darkness, but the Gap still fiercely protects its secrets.

The inpenetrable jungle where no road runs, separating North and South America.
