This is one of the roads constructed by the American "Seabees" near Pavuvu Island's West Bay. The jungle has reclaimed most of it, but the hard surface is still there and it is a good trail. ("Seabees" comes from "C.B.s" the Construction Battalions of the US Navy which accomplished amazing feats of rapid construction throughout the Pacific, often in very difficult conditions. Their motto is "The impossible takes a little longer."
