John Blashford-Snell has been asked to form an expedition to investigate the theory and study the geology and archaeology of the savannah, swamp and jungle around Lake Roja Aguado. SES has approved the project and a recce was undertaken by John, geologist Nilo Theron of Sergeotecmin and Yolima Cipagauta in February.
Using a light aircraft they reached Coquinal, a remote village of 50 families on the shore of the great lake and learned much about the picturesque area. There are twelve communities, mainly of indigenous people, all desperately poor and in need of medical and dental help, support for their schools and clean drinking water.

Colonel John Blashford-Snell is leading a party to Lake Roja Aguado in Bolivia where it's said that a meteorite strike 900 years ago wiped out the Moxos tribespeople.
Colonel Blashford-Snell believes there are people still living in the region and hopes to potentially open it up to the wider world.
