I was asked because of the provided Picture:
"was there a car wash right around the corner at the photo shoot?"
This is deceptive on the one hand, on the other hand I had there relatively fresh a longer distance "in the little river" behind me, so to speak, instead of fording across, it went a while in the small river ahead.
Nothing wild, max as deep as a 33" tire is high. DH clean in front, otherwise mixed.
That led me out of the Peruvian jungle back to the coast, actually a no-go area according to locals and police in Tingo Maria, for me one of the most beautiful passages of the whole trip.
concerning passage in the South America travel blog:
Tingo Maria nach Sihuas - eine nicht enden wollender Track. Schön und abgelegen.

At the bottom of the blog you can scroll through the days with "Newer Post" and "Older Post" - if it interests you...
The overnight stay in the hamlet without any electricity and the convivial evening - remains unforgotten for my part anyway.
Also the vehicle ferry on the way there, looked accordingly, without felt 15km hardcore corrugated iron to the ferry, I would have me the cross then probably clamped. Especially because other passengers caused rather unpleasant feelings.
But - I digressed - the photo in the opening post should only visualize the overlanding character of the post...
