I seem to recall there used to be a tented camp in the vicinity
of the picnic site,...that been the one across the river then????

So what you are saying, in effect is, that there is more exploitation
and over utilization in that very confined pristine natural area!!!

We are talking about developments taking place, a stone throw apart!!!

My goodness, some folks travel endlessly just to visit that strip of
natural beauty and heritage and seeking peace of mind!!!

Once again, all up for grabs,..

You should be a reporter, H.! lol

The tented camp was a veterinary camp near Crooks' Corner, for staff, scientists and students! Serval has been there, on special invite, and knows the history. Very crude, and certainly not a conspiracy! It got washed away in floods! ^0^

A narrow strip of land, probably 25 kilometers wide, not half a K deep, situated
in a region, not only the cradle of human kind but more so pristine natural heritage!!!

Opposed to this we have 4x large human impacts that are threatening!!!!

1. Border gate activities,....
2. TEBA,..
3. The concessionary across the river,...
4. The picnic site activities,..
5. Public interest regarding land claims???

One question remains!!!!,...

1. Is there any hope of such natural beauty to exist and go untouched by
man's greed?? It is so small, for goodness sake, it will never upkeep any
political agenda,...
