Last night the Ntiekietek River, which winds it’s way through the camp, rose over 15 feet as torrential and continuous rain drained from the plains and hills to the north and crashed it’s way past, rushing at speed for Lake Victoria many miles down river.
The rope bridge from the car park into camp was, for the first time in over two years, completely submerged, and we were very lucky that a fallen tree did not come down the river at this time as it would have taken the bridge with it completely!
