	Rafting in Tocantins - Raft the Jalapco (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Travel northwards from Brasilia through the dry-as-dust scrubland and eventually—long after the asphalt has given way to gravel and the potholes have swallowed two of the three spare tires from your 4x4—you'll see the Jalapco highlands rising the up like a mirage.
		Isolated in the eastern regions of the sparsely populated state of Tocantins, this extensive plateau gives rise to no less than five rivers, all of them pristine enough to drink from.
		Drifting quietly past the caimans through a gallery of overhanging trees, you'll see wolves and deer coming down to drink, monkeys crashing through the canopy, and macaws and toucans cawing noisily at the disturbance.

	Tocantins - Araguaia Waterway - Amazon Watch
		Among the most controversial projects proposed for the Amazon, is the Tocantins - Araguaia Waterway, whereby the Tocantins, Araguia and das Mortes rivers would make up part of a new industrial waterway principally for export of grains, minerals and timber from the central-west of Brazil to Atlantic ports in the northeast.
		Three rivers, the Rio das Mortes, Araguaia, and Tocantins would be deepened and widened, creating a river network of approximately 3,000-km, which would link to highways and railroads.
		The Brazilian Government places the cost of this waterway at US$222.4 million over the next two years, but if all infrastructure costs are accounted for, like port construction, shipping, and building locks at Tucurui and Santa Isabela Dams, the cost could run into the billions.
