Image Caption:
Rio Coca, Ecuador

The Rio Coca and Rio Aguarico are shown in this low oblique
north-looking view. The land use patterns observed in this near-
ly cloud free view of the Andes foothills is unique. No roads are
visible coming into the cleared area, suggesting a possible coca
plantation. Patterns such as this may be visible throughout the
eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains in Colombia, Ecuador,
Peru, and Bolivia. (S26-48-046)
