CDLV ?? Any clues??

Hey guys
So I was reading a review of the new Lonely Planet Colombia guide (yes I know probably written by people who have never been there) and a reviewer on Amazon said that LP totally missed writing about a great place in Colombia ... he didn't name it, just gave a clue .... "CDLV" ...... any idea what or where this is?

Thanks!

NYB ... i was referring more to this guy that wrote a review of the book on amazon.com ... search for LP Colombia on amazon.com read the reviews I think its on the 2nd page, he is like "LP missed the best place in Colombia, it would be like writing about the USA and not mentioning the Grand Canyon, i'll give you a clue CDLV" ... so I was like whoa lemme go ask the PBHers, they'll know :)

Cabo de la Vela is on the Guajira peninusula, roughly between Taganga and the Venezuelan border. Vicshere wrote a very in depth report on the area a while back it can be found at

Right outside of San Gil (Bucaramanga, Departmento de Santander).Chicamocha Canyon (El Cañón del Chicamocha) is a National Park and is considered Colombia's "Grand Canyon." Don't step over the edge-it's about 1500 m straight down.

Good job boys! I came across this area on Google Earth the other day. I was wondering what extended past Tyrona to the North. There's actually photos of different spots.
Check this out as well as other remote places you may have trekked to in the past.
