There is no doubt that Yokahu Tower is one of the top two or three spots in all of El Yunque National Forest. Yokahu Tower is one of two observation towers that you can climb to the top for outstanding views.
Yokahu Tower is the more consistent of the two towers when it comes to weather. The other tower is Mount Britton Tower, which is located at a much higher elevation and usually has cloud cover that interferes with the views. The other major benefit to Yokahu Tower is the ease of access. The tower is maybe thirty feet away from the parking lot with no elevation change until you start to climb the tower. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Mt. Britton Tower requires a good amount of exertion to hike a trail which ascends rapidly through the forest before reaching the tower. Yokaju was the spirit of fertility in Taíno mythology.

No hay duda de que la Torre Yokahu es uno de los dos o tres mejores lugares en todo el Bosque Nacional El Yunque. La Torre Yokahu es una de las dos torres de observación que puedes subir a la cima para disfrutar de unas vistas impresionantes.
La Torre Yokahu es la más consistente de las dos torres en lo que respecta al clima. La otra torre es Mount Britton Tower, que se encuentra en una elevación mucho más alta y generalmente tiene una capa de nubes que interfiere con las vistas. El otro gran beneficio de la Torre Yokahu es la facilidad de acceso. La torre está tal vez a diez metros del estacionamiento sin cambios de elevación hasta que comiences a subir a la torre. En el extremo opuesto del espectro, Mt. Britton Tower requiere una buena cantidad de esfuerzo para caminar por un sendero que asciende rápidamente a través del bosque antes de llegar a la torre. Yokaju era el espíritu de la fertilidad en la mitología taína.

Yesterday was international cave day but this year especially is first time it is during the , launched by the International Union of Speleology (UIS) and is recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization as an important public awareness campaign about the importance of the protection and conservation of these fragile non-renewable resources. Caves are important natural resources because of their unique beauty, their history, and their role in a healthy environment. They play key roles in groundwater movement, serve as habitat for threatened and endangered animal species, and often yield the bones of prehistoric animals as well as the artifacts of prehistoric man. They provide outstanding opportunities for studying and gaining a better understanding of the geology landscape, and the relationships between the environment we see at the surface and the one that is hidden underground.

Ayer fue el Día Internacional de las Cuevas, pero este año especialmente es la primera vez que es durante el , lanzado por la Unión Internacional de Espeleología (UIS) y es reconocido por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura como una importante campaña de concienciación pública sobre la importancia de la protección y conservación de estos frágiles recursos no renovables. Las cuevas son recursos naturales importantes por su belleza única, su historia y su papel en un medio ambiente saludable. Desempeñan un papel clave en el movimiento de las aguas subterráneas, sirven como hábitat para especies animales amenazadas y en peligro de extinción y, a menudo, producen los huesos de animales prehistóricos, así como los artefactos del hombre prehistórico. Brindan excelentes oportunidades para estudiar y obtener una mejor comprensión de la geología del paisaje y las relaciones entre el entorno que vemos en la superficie y el que está oculto bajo tierra.

View of the Rio grande of Arecibo, River that the Taino Indians called Abacoa, today the Grande de Arecibo River, there was a settlement of 200 indigenous people who were ruled by the chief Arasibo. This territory bathed by the Rio Grande de Arecibo and the Rio Tanamá was granted, by order of the Spanish crown, to Lope de Conchillos in 1515, who in turn sent Don Pedro Moreno to the island with the task of dealing with the cacique and his Indians and administer his assets. Apparently, Don Pedro Moreno sent the Indians to carry out public works in the Isleta de San Juan and almost all of them died in a short time, thus leaving the banks of the Abacoa river depopulated.

Vista hacia el Río grande de Arecibo, río que los indios taínos llamaban Abacoa, hoy río Grande de Arecibo, existía un asentamiento de 200 indígenas que eran gobernados por el cacique Arasibo. Este territorio bañado por el río Grande de Arecibo y el río Tanamá fue otorgado, por orden de la corona española, a Lope de Conchillos en 1515, quien a su vez, envió a la Isla a don Pedro Moreno con la encomienda de lidiar con el cacique y sus indios y administrar los bienes de éste. Al parecer, don Pedro Moreno envió a los indios a realizar trabajos de obras públicas en la Isleta de San Juan y casi todos murieron al corto tiempo, quedando así despoblada la ribera del río Abacoa. 🗣

Today, water is under extreme threat from a growing population, increasing demands of agriculture and industry, and the worsening impacts of climate change.
As societies balance the demands on water resources, many people’s interests are not being taken into account.
This year´s theme World Water Day is about what water means to people, it's true value and how we can better protect this vital resource. The value of water is about much more than its price – water has enormous and complex value for our households, culture, health, education, economics and the integrity of our natural environment. If we overlook any of these values, we risk mismanaging this finite, irreplaceable resource.

Today is a day to raise awareness about the vital role of wetlands for people and the planet.🌎 Wetlands are a critical part of our natural environment. They protect our shores from wave action, reduce the impacts of floods, absorb pollutants and improve water quality. They provide habitat for animals and plants and many contain a wide diversity of life, supporting plants and animals that are found nowhere else.

Hoy es para concienciar sobre la importancia de los manglares para la gente y para nuestro planeta .🌍 Los humedales son una parte fundamental de nuestro entorno natural. Protegen nuestras costas de la acción de las olas, reducen los impactos de las inundaciones, absorben contaminantes y mejoran la calidad del agua. Proporcionan un hábitat para los animales y las plantas y muchos contienen una amplia diversidad de vida, dando soporte a plantas y animales que no se encuentran en ningún otro lugar.
