Category: Ndoto Mountains | Date: Mar 17 2009 | By: milgistrust
While we are on the subject off the Ndoto Mountains as per my last Blog, just wanted to put a few pictures for you to appreciated these beautiful mountains…. A mountain of sheer cliffs, and huge massifs of granite rock, full of wildlife, and beautiful forests and rare plants… So few people have been to the top! I hope the pictures show up… Lets try!!
South/East Ndotos looking towards Ngurnit, and Poi in the distance…
The forest above Sererit, on the west side… Its like that on the other side as well!! Imagine the walks through the forest with the views east and west..

I Helen Douglas-Dufresne, have been doing walking camel safaris for the last 20 years in the Mathews-Ndoto region having witnessed the destruction of the Milgis ecosystem by the local communities who were unaware of its implications, either we did something or not- so the Milgis trust was born!

Helen,
Thankyou kindly for placing these irresistable photos of the Ndotos on your website, so filled with memories — although there is something deeply unfair in tempting us with such snippets of their sheer magnificence. They make me long to return.
Luckily your photos also suggest how much more exploring and quiet contemplation this isolate range requires and so thoroughly deserves.
Hope they tempt others to comprehend and maybe even explore their wonder a little.
Howard
