Tropical area's, Storms and Drugs - solved!
Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with what should be a very basic request, but while I've googled like mad and learned a lot more about meteorology than I ever wanted to know, I haven't been able to answer a very basic question.
I'm looking for an area of jungle. Sounds simple, but it has the following criteria:
Must be hot and muggy (not hard!)
Characters are going to be airlifed two days away from a drugrunners base, and that's two days hiking for two very very fit individuals. So They are being airlifted in as hiking in would be slower, so it has to already be deep jungle type area.
Mountains near by optional.
Obviously, being drug runners being near an area where drugs could be grown would be ideal, but this being a future world I can fudge this.
Not too hard yet?
Throw in the fact I need a tropical storm or hurricane to cut them off from contact for the two days the main characters are hiking in, and at least two days back to the pickup point.
Help? Its the storms bit that is getting to me?
Cheers!
Edited to add: thanks guys for the suggestions!
