This is interesting. I have never seen these threes in the park.
Are they still standing?

Ndloti, exactly where is this place? I am not a 'Southerner' and can't remember where exactly this place is. All I can remember is that it is on left hand side of the road if you travel from Lower Sabie.

Rooies , I do not think there is a historical plaque - I think the trees may have in fact fallen down by now .
According to my 1992 (?) Jacana "Make The Most Of Kruger" map book with foreword by Dr Salmon Joubert & sponsored by Volkskas Bank the location is just after the Vurhomi stream on the left side of the H5 road travelling towards Mpondo dam shortly after leaving the H4-2.
I will consult the authoritative "Neem Uit Die Verlede" by Dr U de V Pienaar.

It is exactly where Ndloti discribed it to be.
This is how it looked like according Google Earth on 30 July 2011

If you look very carefully you'll see a leopard on the left, a lion on the the right and ellies all over the place. :tongue:
