Craven Posted May 5, 2008 Share I am busy turning green with envy!!! Really increadible to see so much water there! Where was that river crossing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straatvark Posted May 5, 2008 Share hehe - thought you would respond - The Craven family were mentioned around the fire in the evenings. Because the Vis river destroyed the normal route we stayed on Godwana property - also as an experiment to give them feedback on MTB potential etc - and what a MTB heaven it is... The river crossing is close to the "Augrabies farm opstal" (spelling?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straatvark Posted May 6, 2008 Share dylankeyter, we started at 8:00. (The camp need to be taken down and packed some days and on the normal "route" everyday) Although a lot hotter than Cape Town, the heat this time of the year is not to bad. The first day your body struggle but from then on its fine. "Augurabis" is correct Nothingness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first day your body struggle but from then on its fine. "Augurabis" is correct Nothingness[/quote'] Thanks - thought it was. I was there over ten years ago but the river was also flowing then. Never ceases to surprise me when everything else looks so dry. Also, thanks for the pics. I've been in that area so many times but can never get over how beautiful it is there! Will definitely have to make a plan to be there next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straatvark Posted May 7, 2008 Share ahh, a good chef is always good to have - what "Weskus" food are your speciality or do you recommend for a big pot on the fire? (I was considering taking snoek this year but was afraid how long it will keep fresh in a good cooler box) Thanks for the feedback everyone, The Godwana people are looking at this thread and might just react on your comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
