Lost expedition? Where’s the photos of the “new” Peruvian waterfall?


You’d think someone like National Geographic Society would hustle down there to find it.

Whatever happened to the expedition that took off on the trek to photograph what was rumored to be a world-class waterfall newly discovered in Peru?  The cataract was rumored to be among the world’s tallest.

Perhaps a reader who reads Spanish might find some news in the South American newspapers.  Has anyone seen any news?

    Apparently, it’s 670 meters and named Lejía. 2 shots. It’s located in Tres Lagunas, Jamalca, province of Utcubamba.

    This article (sans photo) is just about the projected tourist development.
