Amboseli Ancients

Lake Amboseli is a shallow, brackish stretch of water at the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa. Most of the "lake" consists of flat, dry salt pans but at the end closest to the mountain is an extensive swamp fed from the glacier and the many streams which flow from its' summit. Surrounding the swamp are forests of acacia trees whose shape is so typically Africa. It is a timeless, ancient land dominated by the towering might of Kilimanjaro and throughout the swamp and lake and grasslands and forests roam herds of those other ancient African giants - the elephants.
