Lion at Roiputs

Near the top of the dune

Sherry and I were driving north when Sherry saw what at first we though was a rock on top of a dune. After stopping we ascertained that it was one of the most magnificent lions we'd ever seen in the park. As we were alone, we decided to stay and wait. The lion spotted a Hartebeest down near the road and started to move toward us. The Hartebeest quickly moved away, but the lion continued crossing the road only a short distance in front of us. The wind blowing his mane made for some neat shots.

"It's 768 pages of the most amazing information. It consists of, well, everything really. Photography info...area info...hidden roads..special places....what they have seen almost road by road. Where to stay just outside the Park...camp information. It takes quite a lot to impress me but I really feel that this book, which was 7 years in the making, is exceptional."            - Janey Coetzee, founder of CAROK (Camps and Roads of Kruger)  South Africa
