Re: Making the Patrol Great Again (MPGA)
itinerary?? Who needs one of those?!!
I have a rough idea of where I'm going to go, but nothing is written in stone.
Starting in early June I will start moving north a bit, and I suspect I will be in Botswana around the 10th. From there I will either work up to Kasane and then back through Chobe and Moremi, or I might loop through the west of Zimbabwe and then go to Kasane.
Im thinking of when I leave moremi will head West to bounce around the border of Namibia and Botswana as I drop South.
I'm supposed to meet friends at MataMata and then go into Namiba to Etosha...
This plan runs me to mid/late August.
After that, I'm thinking Kruger, and maybe a bit of Moz/Zim till I have to put the Patrol in storage to fly out in mid October.

Re: Making the Patrol Great Again (MPGA)
Cedric. You know we don't buy Patrol's for their mpg.
We have them for what they can't do, which is nothing (except drink).

Re: Making the Patrol Great Again (MPGA)
I actually had a rough estimate drawn up based on one if the planned routes..
Short answer is way more than I want.
