I read it with fascination while pretending to work at my desk. That climb up the mountain just sounds like it put a hurting on you all. I'm really surprised you guys didn't encounter any snakes. Thanks so much for painting such vivid pictures.

When I was younger, it was put out that when we went to Nigeria, we'd go up north to Yankari. That idea was quashed with the cryptic code that "it's not safe" - (only several years later did I realise they were referring to random acts of violence against southerners). On reflection my Dad's family were probably over-reacting, we were just off the plane from England after all, totally unfamiliar with such concepts.<BR/><BR/>I never knew Nigeria had anything as wild and rugged as Gashaka until relatively recently. I read an account of hiking in Gembu (& Sirte) and found out about Cross River national park.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your account.anonymaus[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-28037620583067619802008-04-06T15:54:00.000+01:002008-04-06T15:54:00.000+01:00"A billy-goat reared up at me, then seemed to fall instantly in lust with Ellie, gaining an instant erection.

And, needless to say, my fellow trekkers didn't allow me to forget the encounter, christening me the "Madonna of the Animal Kingdom".

Fantastic! Gez, i'm astonished , and flabbergasted. I'm enthralled to know you had this wonderful experience in good old Nigeria. It's ironic the majority of Nigerians have no clue about such places in our own country (too busy worrying about what to eat, wear and making money)and are only made aware of such by foreigners like yourself.(Myself included). It gives me joy to know one can have such an experience in Nigeria. Hopefully one day when i'm back home i'll be able to do something similar. I'm truly inspired to say the least. Olu, i sure feel you on this one.Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-12818892832252219802008-04-04T09:52:00.000+01:002008-04-04T09:52:00.000+01:00Olu, I feel you completely!<BR/><BR/>Mr Neate and company, well done.

I say this with all compliment J. - reading all of J.'s travels in naija, it is a wierd feeling when a foreign born has explored Naija so intimately, more than a son of the soil.
