The seasonal Guayabo Pass, which temporarily connects the municipalities of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, and Bahía de Banderas, Nayarit, has been destroyed due to the rising waters of the Ameca River. The damage was confirmed by Civil Protection authorities in Bahía de Banderas and representatives from the San Juan ejido.
The destruction of the crossing, caused by heavy rainfall upstream, was reported on Tuesday, June 17. With the rainy season underway, the Ameca River has swelled significantly, overwhelming the temporary structure and rendering it impassable for vehicles.
The Guayabo Pass is a makeshift vehicular . . .
