For all you desert trekkers.......This is one Big Fella
sand dune at Sossusvlei, Skeleton Coast, Namibia.
Image Could Not Be Found
Photo was taken on our visit there in 1984
Cheers

We reccon we have sand dunes in this country, until you see them in Africa.
I spent some time in Libya, 1000km south of the Med. and there are some stunners in that area.
The biggest tho (according to the Libians) are in Chad, but I've not been there.
Have a great trip Willem, and stay safe.
Cheers,

Hi Peter
Hope you are travelling
well.
This dune is said to be 360 metres in height. Impossible to climb on the drop side. There were also some great dunes in South America shown during the Dakar Rally on TV this year. Don't think that my current blunderbus would make it there....lol
