Towards the end of 2012, a mammal survey by DNPW on the Nyika showed healthy animal numbers in the areas observed. A sighting of three wattled cranes near the Upper Chilinda Bridge was also good news.

At the end of 2012, work was continuing on the drainage between the Dams 2 and 3 roads, as well as the Runyina alternative route. The first phase of the new staff housing project was also completed. Special thanks to Vincent and Dixon, our local Malawian trainee builders, and to Texon Kapira, our master carpenter/trainer.

Knox Mhango has settled into his new position as administrative assistant to the Nyika-Vwaza Trust up on the Nyika, it's good to have him on board!

Before long, and once the worst of the rains are over, our team's thoughts will be turning to the 2013 works programme ...
