This picture was taken from the main front porch of the school on a particularly clear day last week. You can see the peninsula on the west coast of Costa Rica in the distance and the Gulf of Nicoya (the lighter blue) in front of that. We have not had a clear moment like this for about five days now.
This is a part of the campus that was cleared long ago for cattle. When the school bought the land from the Nature Conservancy, it agreed to reforest the entire area. Milton and the students have been planting trees like mad, in a specific pattern that will encourage the monkeys to move from the highest elevations down through a particular series of trees to the campus. This patch has just a little bit of meadow left.
