Richprins,
Those Google images show exactly the make up of the bush along the route.
Apparently there is a small population of Crested Guineafowl in the dense middle section. But we didn't see them.
Flutts, awesome Lion & Rhino sighting

Interestingly, this is one of the longest stretches of tar road in Kruger without an artificial waterpoint or dam on it!
There is one, Gomondwane, but that has been closed most of the time...

There is the Sabie river for quite a long stretch and other natural streams, if I do not error.

Better that way, right?
The Sabie is low sometimes, but never dry ..or is it

I think it sort of stopped flowing once, Lis!
There is a weir about where the road reaches it.

Gezantombi dam just past croc bridge is always worth stopping at.
