Couple of points.

Thank you for writing this report - one of the best I've read.

That fish is f*ckin scary and tell Hennie to get some shorts to wear that his balls aren't about to fall out.

As an afterthought...I don't know your experience with video editing, clearly you're handy with a camera, but you should think about videoing a trip like this. With the HD cameras being as small and relatively cheap as they are, you could certainly get a sponsor to pony em up. Direct em to this thread and I bet they'd be sold. I'm sure that plenty of people here would buy a DVD of a trip like this. I know I would. Just a thought....

Thumb Thanks for the report

Just wanted to echo the sentiments of others, and say thanks for writing this up and posting the pics. I know it takes time and energy to do that, and I certainly appreciate it. Way to go guys.

I agree. Amazing. Some of the stuff seems almost impossible. I am tempted to stop writing lame tourist ride reports....

Just finished reading. Thanks for another great report. Perfect since I'm on the couch with a cast on my leg.
