Return to cattle camp - Ngorongoro Highlands, Tanzania

Return to cattle camp - Ngorongoro Highlands, Tanzania

Maasai herder (warrior age-set) drives his family's cattle from a watering hole back to a pastoral cattle camp in the Ngorongoro Highlands of northern Tanzania. While the Maasai in other regions are semi-nomadic, driving their cattle from pasture to pasture, most Maasai here on the Nogorongoro plateau have permanent settlements. This is possible due to the surrounding mountains that attract enough rain clouds even during the dry season, allowing for fresh grass and accessible grazing land most of the year. Point-and-shoot slide scan, shot in 1998.
