A Kosua woman in Papua New Guinea.
Wagume, the woman pictured here, belongs to the?Kosua tribe, which lives on the eastern flank of Mt. Bosavi in Papua New Guinea. The little-visited area earned some attention in?a BBC nature documentary series, "Lost land of the?volcano."
Blake Everson told TODAY.com that he reached Wagume's village, Seane, after a three-day hike through rugged jungle.
Everson has been traveling?in Papua New Guinea for several years, even starting his own travel organization.
"The reason this area has become an intense interest of mine is due to its vulnerability to the multiple extractive?industries?that have taken notice of the abundant resources that the Kosua are traditional landowners of," he said.
