As Emiliana Duarte warned on social networks, “The fire that has been burning since Monday the 11th in Ouayenpuy continues. It reached the tepui wall through the Kavak valley and moved towards what is now the Uruayen valley.

According to the complainant, “A small group of INPARKS and members of the Kamrata community tried to control the fire using private tanks and on foot, but without success.”

InParks is actually the organization that has recently appointed Rosínes Chávez as its president, who will have to respond to the fire that broke out on Mount Symbol.

At present there is no confirmation on the extent of the affected area.

Auyantepui, called “Devil’s Mountain” by the Pemon, has an altitude of 2535 meters. The popular Angel Falls, the world’s highest waterfall, originates at the top of Auyantepui.
