Luvuvhu Trip

We, together with two off road club hardbodies (Vaughn and Noel) as well as two further non-Nissan families embarked on the Luvuvhu trail during the first term school holidays.
This is therefore a rather belated trip report, mainly because I am a little too busy to draft long adventure tails.
So hopefully the pictures can speak for the trip.

This is a guided tour though big five terrain in the Letaba Ranch and Makuya Park on the Western side of the Kruger.

The most technical driving is on day 4, which one can rate between 2 and some parts grade 3.
The only minor drama was the sand on the banks of a small river crossing, and this was mainly due to incorrect tyre pressures.
