More Details
Easter Island is considered one of the most isolated places on the planet. There, in
the midst of the South Pacific Ocean, on sixty-four square miles of rolling volcanic
terrain, forty generations of human beings lived, loved, struggled and left behind a

burgeoning arboreal ecosystem and left behind a legacy of desolation for future generations
to ponder.
