Darien Conquest
In 1971 the Pan American Highway between Alaska and Cape Horn was broken by 250 miles of dense Jungle, hills and a vast swamp. Several attempts to cross the Darien Gap and the Atrato swamp had failed but at the request of the Darien Committee of Colombia, Panama and USA The British Trans-Americas Expedition was launched under the leadership of Major John Blashford-Snell. Using newly produced Range Rovers and with the support of the Armed Forces of Britain, Colombia, Panama and USA a 60 strong team of servicemen, including Royal Engineers, set out with scientists to navigate this formidable obstacle and show how vehicles could drive the length of the Americas. Special attention was paid to the need to conserve the area and protect the indigenous people once the gap was bridged.
