I can't remember the name of the place, but I'm pretty sure they are traveling up the west side of Argentina, and previously checked in at a place near the Chile/Argentina border.

How are they going to pass through the Darien Gap?
My first reaction to this is why does it matter? They're filming a movie and will probably make something up or just admit they will cross by ferry. But then I thought perhaps, just maybe, people are hoping Rivian makes a surprise announcement of a new amphibious mode. (tongue firmly planted in cheek! :p)

Good morning. The latest updates that I have found is that they are currently 4,904km into the trip and still in Argentina...although they wandered into Puerto Octay, Chile for a stop. They are still about 1300km from Bolivia. There is no telling what route they will be taking though...from the posts online, they have bounced all over the place, cutting back and forth along Argentina. It should be an amazing documentary to watch once it finally comes out.

It has been pretty dead lately on info on The Long Way Up gang. Yesterday I found a post that they were at the border of Bolivia and Peru...No map or location data to go off of though

License plate confirms this is one of the Long Way Up trucks.
