    • Just a word on the failed Mt. Longido climb (hike).

    After 2 hours my guide was scared to death and wanted to go down because of the presence of...buffaloos. Maybe he just felt responsible.

    So for me no summit of Mt. Longido :-((

    I place this under tourist traps because the hike to the summit is greatly promoted in the brochure, and according to this, the guides are supposed to know how to deal with buffaloos.

     He was probably doing you a favour. Buffalo are extremely unpredictable and very dangerous. On foot best avoided. I know!    		kenHuocj Wed Feb 11, 2004 14:08 UTC
