Hi
I went from LA to Lima in 1998. The biggest problem we encounteres was the Darien pass,which still remains a problem.
From Bogota north toward Armenia and Pasto,the biggest problem was the following:
2 different types of guerrillas and bandits.I have to say that we didnt encounter either of those,however,everybody I spoke to in Colombia(colombians) told me the same story. Stay on the main highways.Is in the small towns off the main highways that may have some "strange elements".
Have a great trip....if you're not already there..
Jorge

I'd like to hear from folk who have been in the area in the last few months as its hard to tell the scare mongers from the solid citizens.
I guess we wouldn't have left England if we'd listened to half of the bad news merchants.
