Re: 2019 Planning
We have the BULL RUN here in Zoeloeland but unfortunately only GQ's are capable of completing this FIERCELY UNFORGIVING UNRAVELING TRIP, but I will look and find a trip that the GU's (4.5 & 4.8) can also complete successfully here together with the PACE SETTING GQ's

Re: 2019 Planning
Ek en Juan beplan 'n trip deur die suide van Namibie ongeveer September volgende jaar. Ons sal die detail vroeg volgende jaar uitwerk en beplan. Rowwe idee in gedagte in geen spesifieke volgorde: Richtersveld, Ais-Ais, Luderitz, Kolmanskuppe, Bogenfels, Sossusvlei,Sesriem, Duwisib Kasteel' Tsarishoogte, Walvisbaai, Swakopmund, Hentiesbaai, Spitskoppe, Huis toe.
Dit sal 'n 3 tot 4 weke lang trip wees.

Re: 2019 Planning
I am very keen to do the Luderitz-Walvisbaai dune trip. It has recently been improved so now the trip is all along the coast instead of having to go inland from Luderitz.

Re: 2019 Planning
Ek stem ook vir Moolmanshoek
Buiten dit, moet ons plekke gaan soek waar mens nog kan wild kamp, soos met RIver trip.

Re: 2019 Planning
Dirk,
Ek het pas gepraat met die "Route Director" (Hannes van Rensburg) vir die Kalahari Rally wat eersdaags (in Oktober) plaasvind. Hy het die laaste ruk 7,000km spandeer in die bos om roetes uit te le. As jul lus is vir iets nuuts in Noordwes, kontak hom - hy is "keen" om te help! - PM my vir sy nommer, of Whapp my op Social Forum Whapp groep.
2 moontlike roetes waaroor ons so vinnig gesels het is:
1) Botswana Grensroete (kan van Ramatlhabama gery word, die lekker deel is oppad Skilpadshek grenspos toe. Baie klip, tegniese dele met "escape routes", reg vir so 3 nagte in bos kamp sonder geriewe. (Hierdie roete was my enigste 4x4 ekskursie tot dusver, in 'n pel se Defender. Op daai trip het ons amper versuip in 'n droe rivierloop wat skielik afgekom het, so ons het net dag 1 gedoen; res van die tyd voertuie "recover".)
2) Disaneng Dam tot by Boshoek. Kalahari sand met digte bos. Onder andere 15km in Setlagole rivierloop tot teen die Molopo op Botswana grens.
Mooi bly,
Christoph
