Morning light threads through low canopy as a small group slips off the trail and into the sound of water. The guide leads across shallow streams, through a short dark tunnel of rock and roots, and out onto a riverbank that pushes you toward a spray-cooled pool beneath a modest waterfall. The air tastes of wet stone and green leaves; the jungle feels as if it is watching, nudging you closer to the water.
