Gamsberg 2018 – Sunset – After the Rain #2

Trotz widriger Wetterbedingungen waren die sechs Nächte auf dem Gamsberg der Höhepunkt der Namibia-Reise, ein wenig “Star Party” Feeling auf 2340 m, die nächste Farm zwei Stunden entfernt, bei schwierigster Auf- und Abfahrt. Alle Bilder hier im Album Gamsberg.

Despite the cold and rainy weather, the six nights on the Gamsberg were the climax of our Namibia tour in 2018, a bit of “star party” feeling on 2340 m, two hours to the next farm, via a most difficult pad. All images here in the corresponding Gamsberg album.
