Sossusvlei filled with water (part 2)
At the end of January 2021 the Tsauchab river was again in flood. There was already water in Sossusvlei and this added much more water again. This was a wonderful experience. Nature at its best and beautiful scenery.

That was magnificent: the photography, the music and mother nature.

Fantasties, as ek dit nie gesien het nie, sou ek dit nooit kon glo nie. Hulle het ons vertel die rooi sand duine kom daar agv die rivier (blykbaar die Oranje Rivier) dit het my altyd laat wonder maar deur hierdie klomp water kan ek dit nou glo, natuurlik deur miljoene jare. Dankie dat jy dit vir ons almal wys!

What is the type of vegetation there? Plants are quite lesser in number.. do wild animals exist there? But.. it's a beautiful land😃

There are camelthorn trees ( acacia Erioloba) of which the pods are eaten an then different types of grass. Wildlife is oryx, springbuck and ostrich.
Is this the only time rain falls in measurable amounts in this area? Is there any way to slow the water and make it do more work?
@johannvanschalkwyk2991

Rain falls only every 3rd or 5th year for the grass to grow.There can be up to 6 or 7 eyars of drought. Sossus can fill from the Tsauchab river when there is no rain bur the rain falls on the escarpment 100 kms away!
Baie dankie Johann vir hierdie Video's as ons dit nie deur ouens soos julle gewys word nie, sal ons dit nooit sien nie.ek wil net daarop wys dat jy die datum op video moet hersien.Jan 2021 of Jan 2022? Dankie baie

Dankie Joan! Die datum is reg. Die video is laasjaar gemaak! Dit was net so mooi reenjaar!
seems to me like seasonal floods could be captured in dams and used for irrigation and pasture land with a series of large earthen dams.
