Steelimage and myself just got back from a trip to Northern Swaziland, words can not describe the beauty, the solitude, this is adventure riding at it's best.
I will let the photos do the talking because I am speechless!  ;)

Still there, the town is called Bulembu, The Asbestos Dumps still there, :eek7: the town now has more a forestry industry for survival and a very big orphanage mainly for children who have lost their parents to AIDS, which is apparently one in three in Swaziland.
 
Your subject Line , says it all!  looks like awesome riding terrain. What are the locals like, friendly, or demanding sweets or money? your pics make it look like your route is definately one of those less travelled, i dig that photo of the log bridge, must of had you doing a couple of walk overs picking the correct line.
 
I'm green with envy!! Next time I'm inviting myself to go with  :thumleft:  ;D
