Following the Turtle Beach Lodge Jungle Walk tour internal link, the boots were washed by hotel staff and set back into drying racks. This is how the boots looked when the guests arrived to put them on for the next tour.

One of the activities at the Turtle Beach Lodge was a Jungle Walk tour internal link. Because the jungle was composed of wet lowlands with lots of deep mud, each guest was provided with a stout pair of rubber boots. Here, the boots were collected and washed after the tour.
