Was not speaking French an issue at all? Or do you both ie Ripp and Rell, both speak some?

Thanks for the entertaining and interesting story and photos. I can smell the grass, the smoke from the fires, hear the river and smell the gun oil an gun smoke in the story. The sweat from the 20 km walks too! My feet feel the ache from the walk but also feel the cool cool river water during the river swim.

I too wandered whether you had a look out for crocs during the swim.

One of the hardest things about a hunt in the NT for buffalo is often all the lovely sea and beaches, rivers, and waterholes. So inviting and tempting. But usually not able to be enjoyed. Some one sweats in the heat instead, perhaps has a shower to cool off. Last hunt with larcher, we did enjoy a small clear fast running stream next to camp, but never found the guts to try the deeper wider pools. Even though probably safe. With Graham Williams, the pool in the river was safe for a swim.

Cameroon would be a nice place to hunt and hopefully one day will find an opportunity.

Some very nice animals and good hunting experiences you enjoyed on the hunt.

Air travel for hunting is becoming more and more frustrating both because of airline incompetence, and staff corruption and personal opinions and actions. Also airline increasing bureaucracy.

Good idea to use a .375. A reason many people use one for almost all of their international hunting needs.
