Reaching Tekeze river (WP #22) |
Tekeze river at WP #22: For
once we had a nice source of clear water close to our camp. |

Fording Tekeze river in the early morning: Nile
crocodiles inhabit the river. Local herders helped us to cross safely. |

Water supply from Tekeze river: Villages
several hundred meters above Tekeze river have no water
during the dry season. Every morning a group of donkeys and people go down to
a small source near Tekeze river, filled the jerrycans, and return to their villages. They bring about
40 liters per family. |
Thorny trees: Long
thorns are the best defense against goats. |
Rest stop under one
of these trees: A
meager shadow is better than none. |
