Do not have my detailed map here , but I was sure that there is a drift over the Croc river called Nelmapius drift where towards the end of 1901 during the Anglo / Boer war the boers destroyed equipment to prevent the British from capturing it .

This drift , whatever it may be called , could be on S26 , between S119 & S139 .
Do I get any points for recognising the exotic trees and assumption that the name Nelmapius drift was on the Crocodile river ?
