August 19, 2012 – Alpamarca, Peru – Amazon Express expedition leader WEST HANSEN, of Austin, Texas, bends over with exhaustion after dragging his white water kayak along the Rio Gashan for several miles between Alpamarca and San Pedro de Racco as guide MAURO EZQUIVEL follows behind. Hansen pulled his boat for most of the day due to the low water in the river. (Photo by Erich Schlegel/zReportage via ZUMA Press)
