Jeff Hunt, President and CEO of EarthSource, standing in front of a Santa Maria
log salvaged from a lake in the Rio Dulce. This is the first ever legally harvested
lake salvaged log in Guatemala's history. Jeff and Barry Diaz dove underwater in
scuba gear to retrieve the log while Marion Hunt recorded the event on video. A
tugboat was used to tow it into town where gathering locals grabbed onto the long
rope and helped pull it onto land.
