Arajuno

[citation needed] Arajuno was built by the Shell Oil Company as a base to conduct prospecting in the area.

Shell abandoned Arajuno in 1948 when the company decided to discontinue its prospecting in Ecuador.

[citation needed] In the 1950s, Arajuno was used as a mission base by missionary Ed McCully.

The road to Arajuno remains a difficult ride, and it is common for people to seek other methods of transportation even today.

[citation needed] Today, it is the location of the Arajuno Jungle Lodge, a privately owned and operated resort.
