SIGRID CARTER’S LIFE STORY IS WORTHY OF BECOMING A MOVIE. This was true before she even turned 30. As an adventurous girl in her 20s, she and three girl friends from Germany trekked from Aspen, Colorado, along the Pacific side of South America to where land ends on Tierre del Fuego; then, up the Atlantic side of the continent to the Amazon River and following that river to the Rio Negro and eventually Venezuela.

Somehow, they survived. The ocean current and incoming tide carried them to Jurado on the northwest coast of Columbia, where they lived for a time among local Indians. Further south into their incredible adventure they assisted biologist researching the Amazon Rainforest … more of that adventure is told in Sigrid Carter’s book AMAZING WOMEN, the story of 4 German Girls, 25, 000 Miles, 18 Months and 0 Money.
