Very tropical . I worked in Ecuador in the interior at about 1000 ft. level ,the head waters of the Amazon . Rain about 100 in per year. With this Much rain everything grows very big. On the Coca river they have some trees that are almost as big as the Squaw . The jungle will take back all land very quickly. Like a road to an oil well that is not traveled much the jungle will take back the road and u will need t Caterpillar to get back in.

The Amazon is tropical. It is between the tropic of Cancer and the tropic of Capricorn.
