I dream frogs now.

These are photos of my latest frog collection trip in Parque Alerce Costera, just a couple hours south of Valdivia on the highway and a couple more hours on dirt roads--seriously in the middle of nowhere.Philipe drove his car which took quite the beating with mud, rocks and a group of researchers climbing in and out every ten minutes. Eventually, we even killed the battery and had to push start the car.
It was quite the rainy situation from 8am until 10pm, but for one brief second as we were preparing to leave, the rain stopped and we could see some of the beautiful valley vista.
