Unusually high rainfall in the Mara
Friday, September 19, 2008 at 09:55PM For what used to be the dry season, there has been an exceptional amount of rain this past week in the Mara.
We've had more rain than we had in this year's rainy season, with the bottom road that runs along from Iseiya to Oloololo completely flooded.
There were deep trenches dug into the road from where vehicles have been passing in the wet conditions, and it has been up to our Road Team to work long days to keep the roads open.
A big thank you to the Road Team for all their extra efforts, lets hope that this rain does not continue...

sounds like Toronto. We had record rains all summer. The joy of climate change is you just never know what's next! :)
Yes, it's a bit worrying... we no longer have the wet and dry seasons which makes it difficult for farmers to know when to sow.
kudos to the road team.they certainly made our arrival and departure at the mara quite possible.the story would have been very different without their efforts.
There's more photos recently updated to Simon Matara's gallery which shows the scale of their work.
