picnic, whatever you want to believe :whistle: ..... I have been to KTP EIGHT TIMES in less than 2 years now and each time TR has delivered for me - never seen leopard up at MM or at Nossob but have had 7 sightings around TR - also my best cheetah ....ok Nossob did deliver amazing lion for our first trip but never again .... also the only 4 brownies Ive seen have been around TR .... but ja, everyone has their special place that they love and I'm more than happy that everyone else goes to set up their laagers at Nossob and leaves TR for me :D :D

Have to agree with Scouter. When 2R cooks, it really cooks!
