Nice that they’re finally letting tourists watch the digging. Last time I checked, Kuélap already gets crowded enough with cable-car selfies and nobody’s asking the thousand-year-old walls how they feel about it. The cable car alone cost over 40 million dollars, and the entire point was supposed to be access for locals. Guess who ends up paying for the trail and the “immersive experience” in the end.
