Setting Up New Camp in Mikeno Sector
Category: Active Service, Mountain Gorillas, Rangers | Date: Mar 10 2007 | By: admin
We have started setting up a new camp in the Mikeno Sector in Virunga National Park. The aim is to have a base from which we can monitor the Mountain Gorillas.

This is how we have progressed so far:
1. Clear a space for the camp! (no tree cutting - the log you can see in the background is a fallen tree)

2. Clear spaces for tents (again, no tree cutting)

And I will keep you posted on the rest… This is a very exciting time. After the rebel attacks last Dec and Jan we will finally be able to be close to the Mountain Gorillas and monitor their protection even more closely.
