Trail Report/Photo Section/GPS CoordinatesBeen offroad with your FJ? Tell us about it and post up any photos or GPS coordinates so others can possibly follow in your footsteps!
What tire type/size do you have and what lift type/size do you have? I really like the way your FJ sits and looks. Not to mention my jealousy for your trip
I'm running Goodyear MT/R 285/75/R16 with an OME 3" lift. So far the MT/Rs have been a little aggressive for the trek. Right now I'm wishing I had gone BFG All-Terrain T/A, with better mileage...
Moving further into supposedly rebel territory, our host advised us to take the "armed convoy". Since the convoy left at 6:00AM, WAAAY to early for our taste we left at a more reasonable hour, unarmed...
At Bonampak we were the only independent travellers, but the place was teeming with tour groups!
On the way back we were hoping to see this armed convoy, but never encountered it. Either things are now quiet enough to not require it or they don't travel on holidays...

Very nice! I traveled to Chiapas about two years ago. I have a great deal of respect for the Lacandon people. Did you take the boat ride to Yaxchilan also? The Mayan ruins in the rain forest is an awesome sight to see.

Thanks for sharing!
Yes we went up the Usumacinta to Yaxchilan. The entire experience cannot be more highly recommended. The Lacandon treated us very politely - they look like quite the wild bunch, but are actually very nice. Love the long flowing hair with the white gowns. This is where Marcos gets his support. They are fighting for what they believe in, what is rightfully theirs.
