The crew hikes 28 kilometers from a mountain ridge in Haiti down to the coastal town of Jacmel, abandoning their original plan to return to Port-au-Prince.2:46 After scouting the terrain from a high vantage point, they choose a route toward the ocean, navigating by following local motorcycle traffic and taking steep, unpaved shortcuts that descend from 1,900 meters to 150 meters in elevation.3:34 The seven-hour trek involves crossing rivers and navigating through rainstorms, with the crew opting to walk the entire distance despite multiple offers of transport from local taximotors.9:23 Upon reaching the bridge of Marico near the coast, they board a tap-tap—a shared, enclosed pickup truck—to complete the final 13 kilometers to a hotel in Jacmel.12:04 The crew emphasizes the importance of carrying emergency cash in secure, waterproof locations, as their own funds remained stashed in a boot throughout the journey.14:30
