While the members of Group A were on their way to Iwokrama, Group B flew to Kaieteur Falls. After landing at the airstrip on the plateau above the Falls, they followed the trail along the rim of the gorge. The trail offers spectacular views from several points as one approaches the Falls. The trail ends on the river bank at the head of the waterfall. |
