The BorderLine Walk: Kariba Gorge

Just want to demonstrate your support?

Kariba gorge was without doubt the most physically demanding stretch of the Borderline Walk to date. Before we tackled that daunting obstacle, the debate had involved three areas: the territories flanking the Batoka and Devil’s gorges, and the western half of Chete safari area. Kariba gorge ended all debate, bringing a new dimension to the party and squeezing more sweat from us than the other three areas combined.

You fixed the inner tubeless tyre but now it does not want to hold air because the hand pump or the airflow from the compressor is too slow to kick the tyre on the rim. All the air escapes along the sides. It is a good idea to always have inner tubes with you for an emergency like this, but now, unfortunately there is none available. What now?

The most dangerous man on earth is the man who has reckoned with his own death. All men die; few men ever really live. Sure, you can create a safe life for yourself . . . and end your days in a rest home babbling on about some forgotten misfortune. I’d rather go down swinging


Reading Vultures. Vultures, by any stretch of the imagination, cannot be regarded as good looking creatures - but they do play a vital role in the greater scheme of things by removing carcasses from the veld. They can be helpful to hunters, trackers, rangers, guides and other field staff by indicating the presence of dead animals. But vultures have much more to offer if we know something about them

I experienced déjà vu in May of 2005 while on a safari in Zimbabwe, and it is important here to give you a little background on the situation.
